Bullfinch PonderingsWell 25 Waxwings reported today from Aviemore, seems I missed the other 24, well it was gettin dark! One irate Crestie going ape at my Black Lab bounding round in the forest was the sum total of todays birding other than a couple of lonely Bullfinches. Actually thinking about it, those Bullfinches are a bit of an enigma. They are perpetually in exactly the same clump of young pines, and have been for weeks. Have no idea why those pines are preferable to millions of others in the area, but they never budge. Guess is they are feeding on heather seeds, but there's about 5 billion square miles of that here. Funny birds really Bullfinches, they just sort of exist in a mysterious sort of "Bullfinch world"............odd what you think about when walking the dog.11:55 PM - 16 January 2009 - post comment
