February 2011 part 6

21st Long-tailed tits in garden being chased by blue tit who is living up to his nick name of  "billy biter"
                                          "Lithest, gaudiest Harlequin!
                                         Prettiest tumbler ever seen
                                         Light of heart and light of limb
                                         What has now become of him."    W.Wordsworth
24th Sunny day sat outside feeding a robin and blackbird mealworms.
28th Great spotted woodpecker visits garden. A blackbird tries to copy the blue tits by eating from the upturned coconut but he doesn't have the same ability as them but he gets food all the same.
February ends cloudy and cold but on the whole it has been mild.
