Jackdaws to Buzzards
I am told that there is a albino buzzard around here, must go and look for it, will make a change from Jackdaws :-) kate Forest of Dean. Glos. Sorry folks this should have gone to birdwatching although I think that many gardeners are birdwatchers too :-) kate |

Jackdaws to Buzzards
"Sacha" wrote An inevitable and delightful corollary, IME. Over the six or seven years I've known this place, I've seen some considerable changes in bird life and one of them was some huge screeching noise in the wee small hours about four nights ago. Ray didn't hear it but it frightened the hell out of me! I imagine a barn owl? We get Little Owls here but this is a new event and makes us wonder if it will drive the Little Owls away. Certainly, their visits are few and far between now and that really does upset me because that lovely, daft, hoo hoo thing of theirs in the middle of the afternoon is truly beguiling. Ah just what I wanted to know! I sometimes hear the screeching owl-calls at night around here, but this afternoon there were a couple of those ghostly hoo-hooing calls and I was wondering what sort of owl might be abroad at that time of day. -- Sue |

Humph - well I hope you haven't got ours. ;-) I love them but they haven't been around that much this year, while the screeching type is new to this garden and normally lives about a mile away, we think. -- Sacha www.hillhousenursery.co.uk South Devon (remove the weeds to email me) |
