How very British..queuing!

Not a very clear pic as taken from inside..they would have flown off otherwise..I think the news has got round,that there is a mega pack of birdseed in the shed ! Lol.This is the Family of 10,and managed to get them all together..three on the feeder.and two in the tree as well....They are so lovely to watch..:o)

He has been to the cricket club this afternoon,Pix,with his dad,so we met up after a long walk..wasn't interested in the match..mind you,neither was I..but HE wanted to play football,with his Thomas the Tank engine ball :o))

They are good at queuing arent they? They line up on the tree here and take it in turns to get on the feeder. Pretty mannerly actually..makes a change from Starlings! Great catch Bloomer.

I think that is where the expression 'Pecking order'comes from,Tet..as they know their place,don't they ? so well mannered...or scared ..probably the latter..:o)

Actually Bloomer, they remind me of a row of old ladies, chattering away, shifting up the queue...all they need are those scarves on their heads, like the turbans women used to wear in the 1940's! Lol! I wish I was good at drawing cartoons

15 Sep, 2011

 

Oh I remember my Auntie wearing one of those,and the ladies working in the mills...my mum never wore one..thank goodness...not the most flattering of head gear,but it covered the curling pins!!..those were the pits,weren't they? Lol.

15 Sep, 2011

 

Better still..they could be a queue of gaffers with flat caps on lol!

15 Sep, 2011

 

Well captured Sandra the posed beautifully for you;0)

15 Sep, 2011

 

Exactly Tet..Lol.
Shame I wasn't outside though..that would have been better..but they didn't pose for long ! :o) A bit like the Black necked swans we saw today,aren't they ? Bottoms up,every time we tried to catch them looking so graceful !

Good to see your Sparrows are doing so well Bloomer - they're a bit of a rarity where I live. :-(
