Birdwatching from bed – pheasants and buzzards?
What a great start to the day – Bealers got up before me and got the kids breakfasted (rare which makes it even more special when it happens!) while I snoozed on unaware that the day had begun. He brought me a nice cup of coffee about 20 minutes before he had to leave for work (he is a lucky man as has 10 minute picturesque stroll to his offices in Upton) and he opened the curtains of the window directly opposite our bed. We call it ‘the t.v.’ (as in ’shall I put the t.v. on?’) as is a great view which changes with the weather, seasons, time of day.
Today I was greeted by the lovely sight of our neighbourly buzzard (at least we think its a buzzard) with a couple of pleasant pheasant friends ambling around beneath him. I was pleased I happened to have my camera in the room with me but alas the zoom feature isn’t great so what I captured isn’t what I saw…
