After a busy afternoon, spent mostly on the phone
with various insurance companies, Sue and I decided to take a stroll to the Moorlands
for a very late lunch / early tea.
I took the camera and bins with me – just in case.
After a good meal and a few ‘elderberry cordials’ we
strolled home.
Nearing home I happened to look at the top of a
conifer where a wider than expected green branch caught my eye – using the bins
revealed a Ring-Necked Parakeet.
I thought that the ‘elderberry cordials’ had been too
strong – but no, it was the bird.
strong – but no, it was the bird.
I managed to get 3 poor photos before it flew off.
A text to B.S. when I get home , whetted his
appetite, and he decided to pop down to Bradshaw for a gander.
We happened to bump into my mate Adam, who showed
us a route where we could get a better view of the conifer – and we were
rewarded with some cracking views, and I got some better pictures of the bird.
Thanks Adam – I'll
get you a wine gum and hot water next time I’m in the Fleece!
