So I continued, and it was not long before I could once again hear that same call! So this time I checked the lawn around the feeders.
You could have blown me over with a feather, as there under the feeder in my little garden were 7, yes, 7 Red legged Partridge. I was galvanised into action and rushed for the camera, it was this sudden movement I think that may have startled them, as when I got back they had gone, but not very far as they were soon calling from the roof of my neighbours house.
This time however the camera was on hand and records of probably my most unusual garden bird!
A little jostling for a warmer spot perhaps?
So last one for a while!!! again.
Thanks for looking.
