More birds.

The wren page is finished and more or less as you last saw it.

Robin followed on quite quickly.

Great tit is waiting to be tidied up a bit and have his name added.

Likewise, House Sparrow.  I carefully arranged my collage pieces to get the best effect and took a photo so I would know where they looked best and what to attach first.   It looked much better than this - I wonder what happened!

Last year we had a squirrel in our loft, so stopped putting out peanuts for the birds in the hope of discouraging them.   We now put out porridge oats instead, and look who came for breakfast the other morning.   I don't mind really, as long as they don't come any nearer the house.

Your bird book is taking shape beautifully Heather - I am green with envy of your ability.
Love the squirrel too. Have you drawn him?

Your birdbook is going to be fabulous. Your drawings are brilliant. I cheated and printed ones off the internet for mine. By the way, I managed to get in touch with Jan M.

beautiful Heather. your drawings are fab- it's quite obvious which birds they are. I can understand you not wanting a squirrel in the loft and I know people moan about grey squirrels having decimated our reds but I do love them.

These are absolutely beautiful Heather, and what a cute little visitor to your garden.

Well, you know the Doctor and I love our squirrels, but we've never had one in the house :)
