More snow in Edinburgh today, not as much as yesterday and didn’t seem to force the birds into the garden, the starlings are start to gather in a slightly bigger group of over 30 today, was great to see, also watched as Magpies broke twigs off the trees in the front garden to build their nest in the monkey puzzle tree (this link may take you to the archive.org website due to change of host) that I photographed a few weeks back. It was a day of a fair bit of work, finally starting to get the finance section for Australia together the credit cards section done, which can be seen here: best credit card deals in Australia (now closed as I move into gardening as a profession), not a big list, but great to see the birds flying across the sky:
- Blackbird x 2, 1xm, 1xf
- Carrion crow x 50+ fly overs
- Coal Tit x 1
- Collared Dove x 1
- Magpie x 2 – they’re making their nest in the monkey puzzle tree
- Starlings x 30+
- Woodpigeon x 2 – my parents are shocked at the size of these pigeons in the UK
