A2 #pttravel On July 4 a few years ago, I found a Bald Eagle in the tree overlooking the city park. We see them in places today you wouldn’t have a few years ago.

A2 #PTTravel Not a bird ... but, there's a butterfly sanctuary on a disused railway trackbed not 500 metres from my home.

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A2 This one was in our back garden. Um… Sparrowhawk? I’m rubbish at bird identification! #pttravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A2. Here are a few from Dundee and the surrounding area. Lockdown wouldn’t have been the same without them. #PTTravel

A3 #pttravel I saw a nest in the shed & wondered who it belonged to. After a while, I crawled up there to see if I could see anything. I found one chick & still didn’t know what it was. I came back outside to find a mother robin in a tree letting me know who’s chick it was.

A3 This peacock stalked us in Cockermouth earlier this year…and had a fondness for walking back and forth over our pod roof at about 4.30am each morning. #pttravel

A2 Despite liking to watch birds, I don't take many photos of them at home.
We get a lot of magpies (and I still do the rhyme as I count them), robins, goldfinch, wood pigeons and great/blue tits. I've spotted sparrows and blackbirds less recently.

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A3 I still get trauma flashbacks to the parrot that was obsessed with my mouth in Cairns 😅 #pttravel

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @kate_frankie I don’t mind swans - this was the A19 near us about 18 months ago. The actual road. Took 16 months to reopen. #pttravel
