Last night the temperature was -7ºC, possibly colder. The ground is hard and there's a sprinkling of snow. We put some stale bread out on Monday, and now, on Friday, the birds are finally eating it! I suppose they are desperate for food. The red berries on the holly bush have finally disappeared (eaten by birds). I've seen our usual robin, blackbirds male and female, and some sparrows. It was beginning to look like spring, and now it's gone all wintry again. Today it's bright and clear, and I think the wind has dropped.
The other bird I saw this morning was what the Spanish call a "washerwoman"; a grey wagtail bobbing about in the front garden.
Life in Jaca, in the Spanish Pyrenees. Nature, including the amazing birds, sport, culture, books, history......
Hi Sally,
ReplyDeleteMaybe in the spring you will have lots of little birds singing in your garden! Chao!
