Had a nice visitor in the garden today. Manage to snap one of a pair of Red-legged Partridges walking about on the driveway. Photo taken through a double-glazed window.

What a great visitor and a good photo.
When I were a lad we always called them "French Partridges" but we never saw them anywhere near the houses.

Lovely visitor to have Ed!

Great to see in the garden Ed and to get the photo. I have seen a few while driving this year, no photo yet...

Continuing my theme of trying to photo the smaller life in my garden I think i caught an Early Bumblebee.

Nice photo Ed.

Possibly a Buf Tailed BB.
PS Like most people I find ID ing BBs vey tricky but a few are easier then most.

Well done Ed, very nice

Following on from finding Red Legged Partridges in the garden, today we had a visit from a pair of Grey Partridges. Only managed to get one on a photo.



Looking forward to the end of May. I can get my lawn cut.
