As many of you may know, Jen and I live in a first storey flat that has a window balcony opening onto our living room. The view from this window overlooks our local copse and a large green, so consequently we get a lot of wildlife, including hedgehogs, foxes, deer and plenty of wild birds. This winter Jen hung 2 bird feeders out from the balcony railings, 1 with wild bird seed and 1 with peanuts. Any old bread we throw out is quickly scooped up by our wood pidgeons or the local blackbirds, but we have had plenty of visits from our local Blue Tits to our feeders, and up close they are such lovely birds to observe. Their colours are really pretty and they are such curious little birds that they look in and watch us as much as we watch them. They are getting very bold and don't fly off when we move toward them, as they know that there is a glass window between us and them; but they seem to get tamer day by day Attachments:

You are sneaky there wood!! Still a great photo! Yep, but I never said that I had taken the photo, and it is often a google search which gives the best results when looking for a suitable photo to illustrate the subject if you don't have any yourself I don't know if you remember Shawn who is a member, but he has taken some lovely photos of birds www.flickr.com/photos/26208287@N07/
