At the moment the garden is absolutely rammed with young birds: the most abundant are the Starlings, with over seventy being usual. They are generally accompanied by just a couple of adults. Also present in numbers are Dunnocks, Robins, Blackbirds and Collared Doves. We have a 'glowing eye' cat on top of the pergola, which is designed to scare off Sparrowhawks. It doesn't work: every day a new bundle of feathers is on the lawn! And the other birds aren't impressed by it either!
As I mentioned, I ordered a top-of-the-range pager: the first in twenty years. Imagine how thrilled I was to find it was receiving any alerts... Assuming there was something wrong with it, I phoned the providers (probably the best-known supplier) only to be informed that there was little coverage east of Norwich! This is (allegedly) due to a transmitter tower being rebuilt. Wouldn't you think the providers would tell you that
before accepting payment?
