blackbird



Category: Life | Posted: Thu Jul 05, 2007 10:25 am

I`ve just managed to cut the grass at last after 3 weeks,I don`t like cutting the grass when it`s so long.... my mower is so old that the person who invented the mower would recognise it, in fact having looked at the first mower, it looks better than mine : )
Anyway... the blackbirds, unfortunatly as much as i like cats this one wasn`t welcome, it was sitting at the bottom of the shurb where the birds were building their nest. No longer, they have moved on, the neighbour didn`t suit them. But today i have spotted 2 young blackbirds sunning themselves, wings spread, beaks open, just enjoying the sun, and by the way they love porridge oats, not just the blackbirds but the robins, dunnocks and sparrows, at this very moment i even have a song thrush eating the oats and they are only 89p for 1 and half kilo.
Let me assure people that i do put seed and nuts out on the bird table. xxx

Daff, I don't know what's gotten into the cats lately! I've been having cat issues too....

Are porridge oats like rolled oats (oatmeal)?

Hi hummingbird, on the front of the packet it says oat flakes, all i know is that the birds love it.
I hate having to chase the cats off, but the birds need protecting. when i moved down to Kent (3 years ago) i had to leave my cat behind as he was 18, my sister rang me last night saying that he`d died....... :(
