Lakeland birds

Thank you Janey fantastic photos .

Thanks Kathy....:o)) How's it up where you are? Are you able to get to Glamis okay?

Lovely close ups Janey, it makes you wonder how such tiny little creatures withstand the aweful weather.

wonderful photos, glad you had a good time even if the weather was awful.

Hi Janey ...
pretty bird pics ... :o)

Very good shots. Love the first nuthatch one. Gone into faves!

Glad you had a lovely time,Janey,despite the weather..those little birds would be so grateful you fed them..We used to visit Windermere,and Ambleside a lot,when we lived in Cumbria...lovely places to see,and some nostalgic memories..your photo's are wonderful,thank you :o)

Brilliant photos, really! I love them, keep them coming.

Thanks Hb...yes, you sort of expect bad weather there, so cold and dry was just fine...:)). We did leave on Thursday evening, as we'd heard the snow was coming...thank goodness we did!
I know Stroller, lots of places to shelter there though, food for them now though will be scarce won't it....:((
Thanks Louisa and Tt.....the birds were only inches away from the window...:))
Aw thanks Lulu!
How wonderful living there Sandra, it's my all time favourite place, even in the rain....the nature and wildlife is amazing...and the tall conifers....ooh I could go on for ages...pleased you liked me pics.....:))

What a delight Janey, beautiful pics too. It certainly is a wonderful part of the country too.

These are stunning photos janey, how fabulous to see so many beautiful birds.

Great shots of the birds Janey, we don't get the nuthatch here so they are a rare treat to see, it is beautiful in the lakes .......

Excellent photos of gorgeous little chaps (and chapesses?)

Great pics of these beautiful little birds...:>)

Ome loverly pictures Janey,We have also spent the day watching the local bird life, icluding Nuthatches, Logtailtits, Robins and Blackbirds enjoying the seeds, nuts and my own made fruitcake;0)

Thanks girls!

No, not our side Lincslass.....we must have the wrong type of nuts....:)). I'm hoping they're still enjoying the feeders, with all the snow now.

Lucky you to have them Carole, of course you're on the west too, not so far to go to the lovely Lakes....:))

Whereabouts on Windermere janey?

What beautiful photos Janey, such a treat for us as well as you, thanks......

Great blog, Janey. Thank you very much. How nice from you to think on these little creatures even on holiday. I bet they will remember a nice lady bringing them horn of plenty for next few generations ;-)

Just between Bowness and Ambleside Sticki at White Cross Bay leisure park. We used to holiday here when the children were small, then this last few years they've had a revamp, the lodges are beautiful and the static caravans, the park itself is full of rhododendrons, acers and huge conifers, the gardeners there do a fantastic job....:))

Thanks Dd and Katarina....:))

It looks a beautiful spot, we stayed in ambleside last year, I really liked it.

very special and wonderful:-)))))))))

hope you enjoyed your break Janey and nice you both got to have a break, lovely photos of the birds even though its been so cold its still lovely to get away and have a change isnt it :o)) xx

Janey those photos are beautiful what a good idea to encourage them with bird feed ever thoughtful even on holiday ,I'm glad you had a good enjoyable time in a beautful area xx
