Aww!! Pictures!? :grinning_cat::smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

One of my other cats caught sight of a weasel on the other side of the conservatory bi-fold windows and he was doing his tiny nut trying to get at it although I am not sure who would have won that one.

Weasel’s can be tricky

I’ve been meaning to do a list of all the birds we’ve been having, but I’m really pleased to say that the nuthatches have returned!! There’s one local one that has been around for a few days at least. I have got a picture of a fledgling one that we rescued a few years ago. I will link it here as it’s difficult to find pictures otherwise: https://lovehoneyforum.com/t/images-to-share-in-topics/259586/703

Oh nice! They’re gorgeous the Bengal cats. I think there’s supposed to be very clever? And want loads of attention all the time? That sounds like our Minnie but on steroids, I think she alone is enough! :grinning_cat:

Oh wow, lucky you having weasels! We’ve never had them here before. Saying that that’s probably a good thing we didn’t have them as we had rabbits for years…

I will post a picture or two of our girl Min soon, I’ve already uploaded a few pictures but err.. none of the cat! and waiting for mod approval, they’re a bit out the comfort zone for me so we’ll see how that goes first and then I’ll post some more :grinning_cat:

A very lucky walk with a Kestral, Buzzard, Red kite all along the fields near the river.

Hey @Bigiain nice to find a fellow birder on here! I’m a bit of a novice but I try :grin: i’m just bringing you here as this is the nature section. Thank you so much for sharing those pictures, absolutely gorgeous! You’ve really picked out the details as well, I would love to see puffins, am I guessing you are in Scotland? As a lot on the forum seem to live that way.

The wee penny bun mmm I can taste that from here!! :brown_mushroom::brown_mushroom::brown_mushroom:

We do have cormorants here, they’ve settled over the past two years also, it’s ever so strange because I’ve always thought of them as a sea bird. So it’s kind of hard to see them here but they come over a lot in the winter, the water has improved with the canal so we get quite a lot of fish. Sometimes when the sun shines in a certain way it picks out the colours. Perch and roach is what the anglers tell me. But they love the fish.

I’ll try and post a list of all the birds we have here, I keep meaning to but messages get lost in the forum very easily. But thanks for sharing, and please do keep sharing!! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts::eagle::duck::feather::black_bird::owl:

You make it sound like everyone in Scotland is on the forum @Hannahnim and is highly kinky. :grin::joy:

It’s the kilts you see. Nothing underneath them to obstruct access :partying_face:

Well I am officially 50% Scottish and probably ever so slightly on the kink scale.

Have been known to wear a kilt (more often than not) if we go out somewhere and I have to get dressed :innocent:

We both love wildlife and have spotted some wonderful stuff over the years, (or more honestly) my o/h has pointed something out.

There’s a wee portion of Scotland on here I can tell you that!! :scotland: And they’re all living their best lives bonking like mountain rabbits on all that haggis and fresh air while poor me and @WillC are left choking on black country smog !

I’ve discovered myself how a naughty outfit can bring out a different side in me and can fully agree those pantsless kilt outfits are not helping to tame them one bit!! :tumbler_glass::rabbit::eagle::scotland:

Ornithology the Scot’s way, consensually showing the worm to catch the bird.
