Summer Round-UP

.....

Supper

Sparrowhawk takes supper - taken through the upstairs window at about 7.30pm.

Sleepy Boxgrove

Very few birds around the Priory or the Church, small birds especially, keeping out of the bitter wind. Temperatures still hovering just above zero and the ground in a state of permafrost. Magpie, Woodpigeons, Common Gulls, Starlings, Crows, Blackbird and a Wren in the car park.

Freezing Halnaker

Pagham in the Snow

A quick midday trip to snowbound Pagham Harbour with temperatures just under zero.

First winter snow

While the north-east and Scotland have been getting over a foot, we've had to wait until today for our first snow.....only about 1cm.

Couple of Wrens visited the front garden this morning. Great Tits, Blue Tits and Robin all active in the back garden.

Jay 2 O

Two Jays in the front garden last week, saw another two up on Halnaker Hill today: plus numerous Pheasants sitting around waiting to be shot, a Green Woodpecker, Yellowhammer and a hawk having an aerial duel with a Rook. Suddenly got much colder, Indian summer over?
