There’s nothing creepy about you @Ponders Revisited you are a fellow devotee of our beautiful Animal Kingdom, the inhabitants of which must be cherished at all costs.
Re: Test Match Cricket There was justifiable & widespread condemnation yesterday of TNT’s decision to go with two non cricket personalities to front their Ashes coverage this Winter
That's good of you to say so, bud. I should at this point remind our kind-hearted forum to put out some high energy food for our feathered friends this winter. Suet pellets, fat balls and mealworms can be purchased from most supermarkets, discount stores and garden centres. Clean water is also vital, even in the coldest months, as a clean bird is a warm bird.
There's plenty of food around in autumn for birds, and fledgelings need to learn to forage. They need our help when winter kicks in. The Robin is Britain's national bird, quite right too. Anyone who gets their hands in the soil will befriend a robin. The great wildlife poet John Clare wrote a wonderful poem about Robin.
Like I say, feed them nutritional food this winter and provide fresh water. And make sure the feeders are cleaned regularly.
