Congratulations and virtual gold stars for the correct identification of last weeks close up of a strawberry go to Adrian, Matron,Jan, Keith and Glo.

On to the new puzzle photo. This object I photographed quite a while ago and didn't get round to using it. I wonder how you will get on with:

Guess what:

I'm not looking for the name of the full object but what can be seen in the bottom half of the picture.
Clue: Sounds as though it should be speedy.
No prizes. Just for fun.


Mr. Mrs. and the four baby Great Tits are all doing fine. This morning was the first time I could see that one of the babies had it eyes partly open while it was being fed. It took a while for Ma GT to get the insect the right way round for the baby to swallow it.

  1. Thank you for my gold star John :)

    Lovely video footage. They certainly seem to be getting stronger already!

    Great photo of the gang of juvenile Starlings on yesterday's post :)

    I looked at this week's mystery object earlier and didn't have a clue but looking at it again I wonder if the bottom part could be a plastic zip fastener... I am probably way off beam but I can't think what else it could be.

  2. Hmmm... no, I don't think it can be and the bit in the bottom right corner is weird!! I am really intrigued now ;)

  3. I reckon it's a Jay cloth :)

    That video was great John. I love the way the young one eventually gets it eaten, and then immediately opens its mouth for more lol

  4. Nylon zipper with slider and tongue - at least that is what we call it in the US. That pink really suits you, John! ;-)

    still can't comment as myself.

    cheers,
    Wilma
