November 2010 - A long-missed friend returns!


Tuesday 16th: A visit from a very noisy Wren at the back door this afternoon signalled the return of an old friend from last Winter. We had a Wren paying regular visits to our kitchen and take some live mealworms from last December 2009 to March this year. The Wren then disappeared, we assume to pair-off and raise a brood. So imagine Mel's delight when this bird re-appeared at the kitchen door! We are both convinced that it is the same bird from last Winter as it knew exactly where to go and where the mealworms were, it even announced it's arrival with the usual calling, until fed by Mel and not at all nervous at Mel's close proximity! let's hope that it again decides to stay for the duration of this coming winter.
