📢KLAXON📢
We just had a Kingfisher pass through and take an extended break in the marshland, aka outer playing fields!
Backyard Wildlife College is ECSTATIC about this sighting in our immediate environs, the first time in many decades for our groundskeepers.
We extended a warm welcome to our new friend and hope s/he spends more time here, as we have a lot to offer!
(Kingfisher was a bit shy, so no picture proof available)
Actual conversation:
Me: those walnuts you found in the garage are still good, they taste nice.
Mum: oh ok! Then i shan’t leave them out for Erik.
Me: I don’t mind sharing them with Erik, but I do want some for me.
(Erik is our resident red squirrel)

Please remember to clean your bird feeder regularly- prevent salmonella from spreading when helping our feathered friends through the winter.
Our little house is very popular with the locals!
The Little Owl Hoot-off battle continues tonight again, here in the woods behind the house (aka “Collegium Vanachter in den hof”)
Quiet country-side nights are not what you imagine them to be! But we do love them.
