Watch the birdie

I found this little fellow knocking himself senseless against the glass in my greenhouse this morning, a quick catch and release and all was well, with the lads and I happy with a little break from our routine...a sparrowhawk?

A bird in the greenhouse gives me the heebie jeebies. They do eventually find their own way out.

Did the girls go screaming around the pad or did it get the ah! didums treatment, wonder if that's the one that hangs around by lake Brimstage?.

Albert....they were well impressed, they like the weasel we have in the courtyrad too.

Yes, definitely, I'd say. Which means he followed a songbird into the greenhouse. The songbird escaped, I take it?

Obviously he will never have to darken the doors of Specsavers!!!

Too bad you couldn't keep and train him to attack, with a leather hood and all that cool stuff. :-)
