Feeding Time...

Elizabeth spotted this female house sparrow feeding her three babies this morning...

First one

 Then another

 and the third...

Where was Dad when all this was going on... Sunning himself, what else...

Whilst the sparrows have done their thing, others are still thinking about it and obviously nest building..

We will have to watch out for their young. The adults are always around our garden...

Strange behaviour

I have been working in the grenier today and this morning, not long after starting the job I could hear a tapping noise. On investigation it was a bird pecking one of the two windows.

It went on for hours and then the sparrow decided it had had enough and went to sleep... Me, being me, I disturbed it by tapping back on the window and it flew off only to return to the other window and finish its nap!!!

Twice I opened the window to see what it would do... It did not return to the window or offer to come in... BUT as soon as the window was closed it was back...

At the time of writing it is still on the window so it has been there for over eight hours.

I feel like I am being stalked OR is it Elizabeth's spy making sure I am working. Who knows...
