Rookery

There are two Rookeries that I know of in the village. This one can be seen from the cricket field where we walk most afternoons. It is less than a quarter of a mile from my garden so you can see why so many corvids visit here.

Later in the year, when they start raising their broods I will take a different route so I can get closer.
This photo was taken with my old Pentax Optio. Only 3.2 mega-pixels with a 3X optical zoom but small enough to put in a shirt pocket. I don't use it a lot as it eats batteries but now I've got into the habit of taking them out when the camera is not is use.

  2. Hello Keith. The Crows are by far the noisiest of the locals. No mistaking when they are about.
