A garden full of birds

Well summers come back for a day or two, lots of activity Blue tit, Coal Tit and Great Tit young everywhere even the Woodpeckers and young Jays have been on the feeder today, Oh yes the Electricity pole has been replaced , so the woodpecker has a new perch ( mind you its probably covered with creosote)I have been sat here for a long time to get some pictures of the Redstart that i saw the other day, but maybe there are too many Sheep in the field close to were they feed also the garden is full of all sorts at the moment here's a few I'm off to Pembroke now for a few days hopefully I'll get more shots of the Jays and Woodpeckers when i return

Just as I posted the last blog I went out with my camera and spotted a BlueTit going into until now unused nest box we put up 4or 5 years ago why it's never been used can only be because we have a cat house under the tree. The birds must have got used to the cat by now and is not seen as a threat

Woops! here are the missing Pictures

Electric Wooodpeckers

Well its been a long time since I posted having said that the weather here in Snowdonia has been dreadful for the whole month of May ,we've had a bit of drama in next doors garden over the last couple of years Lou's has posted lots of pictures of Spotted Woodpeckers on the Electricity pole next door well, over time their pecking and hammering have caused serious damage to the pole and is so bad that now it has to be replaced! here's a pic of the culprit (not a good image but its all I could get).
Buttercups and all sorts of flowers are now blooming the grass is growing fast with all this rain plus loads of Bee's and Bug's every where I don't have the time to find their names but I'm sure most of you out there do. Finally i've added a picture of "Lou's steps" which she wanted put in last year, I remember telling her it would ruin the lawn... I think I was wrong?
