That would be lovely Dpack, especially if the children fed from your hand too.

Gz, haven't heard a wren yet, but sure to soon. We get them in the garden and the woods.

Having made a pair of 17th century hose from the fleece; spinning, dyeing, knitting, I know the work that goes into them. I darned my socks several times, then knitted a patch for the heel that kept g ...

Think people like RSPB and Defra are probably monitoring migratory birds where possible, so if in this country, probably aware.
