and then came again after about 10 mins and began again.

Haven't seen it since :shrug:.
Top marks Placi :yes: I haven't had a ST for ages :sadbanana:

Talking of young Collared Doves I had one hit my patio door this afternoon with an almighty thump. It remained stood on my patio for over an hour looking very stunned(unsurprisingly). I was at the point of seeing if it was unable to fly when it flew up into the Rowan where it remained for about 45 minutes before flying off. :)

:wave2: What good news :). At least there's hope yet ...... :(

I have to edit this :rolleyes: - mine almost clashed with Jacksparrow's post but actually I was replying to Greenfinch's good news about a robin and a collie. Don't mean to sound uncaring (but I am) and flippant (which I am), cap'n :sofa:.

What unfortunate juxtapositioning :(.

Very sorry to hear about your collie, Jacksparrow, always a horrible sound, the soggy thump.
Glad it was an eventual happy ending.

No sign of said Collie or any carcass in the garden toady so I am very hopeful.
