Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

Awwww thanks folks 
we went to Howl Bar in town to celebrate on Friday, amazed to discover it actually is a rock bar, rock as in nosebleed thrash metal. Noisy but decent!
Steve, less sneaked in and more never got round to refilling in details when the new HL layout thingy occurred
Darling Charlie, oopsie the egg custard got too scoffed too quick to be worriting about candles we'll try harder on Tuesday

Love that s**t! last night the local wildlife was scattered by a motorbike being burned out on Burley Village Green

There's often a Sparrowhawk sneaking through the Trees in my part of the Park, so my Flock are always on a constant lookout but the local Pigeons are usually the first to give warning. Otherwise they usually have their heads cocked looking up towards the University Clock Tower (there's a Pair of Peregrines that made it their home many years since)....

Sorry to hijack the post but talking of things that fly, I've had a huge owl visit my garden lately. A Sparrow hawk often visits in the day but the owl in the evenings is a sight to behold.Big Si wrote: ↑12 Oct 2021, 23:23Planet Dave wrote: ↑11 Oct 2021, 13:53 Thanks folks

Funnily enough our university clock tower has a pair of peregrines nesting up there too. And they're on webcam!

A most excellent hijack, indeed more of an evolution, no worries Laura owls are magnificent
Charlie reckons she's seen what may have been a peregrine falcon around, maybe one of the Uni dudes then, only up the road innit I saw something earlier in the year flying overthe trees that had a inwardly curved tail arc and maybe kinda zigzagy / layered patterns underneath its vast wingspan, closest I could find was maybe a buzzard, prolly too small for a red kite but they are abroad, or the cover of the Love album by The Cult 
the blue and coal tits that come to feed always have their heads on swivels but usually it's the magpies that're around and about causing that. We got a brief sight (and sound) of a woodpecker the other day too, which was awesome. And with that memory Charlie is off to dig out her Young Ornithologist badge
