My Garden 2021

Not much doing of late feeders, not been filled due to an upsetting time. 

Aug 14th: Chaffinch - juv & Goldfinch - juv.
 

Are you a mind reader Alan all being well next week I'm hoping to have two days out next week if I'm okay and weather is. Main port of call is Nebraska having not been for best part of six years, hell time flies! According to my log book in 2014 had 30 species and in 2013 it was a good day. Those sightings you mention will do me on their own, hopefully will see some butterflies etc. Have another few nearby places which I haven't visited lately including one which is usually excellent for butterflies, at one time Turtle Dove were there but that was way back, also had the Banded Demoiselle and Quail there, watch this space lol.

Thanks very much for info, if I get owt really special will text you.

Cheers
John 
PS: may take a pair of steps to see better lol
