Boxing Day Birds



Easterly wind and frosty conditions, make for hungry river birds ! 



                     In spite of my Scooter breaking down, I managed to get down to feed our feathered friends, Christmas day and today.



 A few pics and short video below, gives you an idea of mealtimes. 





Not forgetting Robin, Saffron, Ebony, Disco and Newbie at home.

I noticed a black mallard with a white chest this afternoon - have you noticed this one before and do you have any idea what might have causes this colouring?
