The storm is coming

Its been like Piccadilly Circus in the garden today. There were so many birds flying about at one point, it felt almost eerie. I think they all know there's gales and torrential rain due tomorrow and are busy filling their belly's as tomorrow will be a nightmare for them.

We had some new visitors again today. A pair of black birds. I was hoping it was Mr No Tail and his Mrs but it wasn't. Maybe its one of this years chicks and new mate, I can't tell. It's been so long since I've seen any of them.

There's been 3 Nuthatches acting very territorial today, chasing each other off the feeders and through the hedges. They're so noisy too.

The Dunnocks don't get much of a mention do they, as they just keep themselves to themselves, so I thought I'd add a photo of one today.

Some more plants flowering in the garden, would love to put a name to them but this plant looks like 8 virtually identical ones in my flower book and I'm not confident enough to name it. If you can tell me please let me know.
