| | Welcome to our newest member, Freddi | | I already have my own blog (accessible from my web site) which describes the walks that I go on - I generally walk 12-15 miles, two or three times a week, all over Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire and the southern part of Oxfordshire. Here on my WAB blog I will just comment on the wildlife that I see on my walks. I love being out in the countryside and enjoy seeing all types of wildlife, but I am especially interested in birds and wildflowers.  | This morning I walked for 2-3 hours around the woods of the National Trust's Ashridge Estate. I saw my first few bluebells in flower. The highlight of the walk was a Treecreeper, which very obligingly posed for me while I took its photo.  Treecreeper
I saw a few Muntjac deer, but strangely no Fallow deer at all. When I did this walk a few weeks ago, I saw four different groups... | Commander of the Wild Empire | | Comments 2

Still recovering from a virus. Did some more bird watching in the garden today, and was rewarded with only my second sighting this winter of a Siskin. Got some nice photos of Long-tailed Tits and Greenfinches, too.  Siskin  ... | Commander of the Wild Empire | | | Comments 0
| | Unfortunately I have been ill again, possibly a recurrence of the virus I had about a month ago. I'm more or less OK now (at least I can eat properly again!), but I'm still feeling weak and tired. So I've not been out anywhere for over a week.  Great Spotted Woodpecker
Today I spent a couple of hours or so bird watching from my 'hide' in the summerhouse... | Commander of the Wild Empire | | | Comments 0

I spent a large part of today bird watching. I got up early, and started off by photographing birds from the summerhouse. I just missed a Great Spotted Woodpecker, which I saw from the kithen but which had gone by the time I got outside. I saw the usual early morning pheasants, plus starling, robin, dunnock and great tit. There wasn't much about, and I only stayed about 30 minutes... | Commander of the Wild Empire | | | Comments 0
| | I've still been feeling weak after my recent virus, and haven't been able to go for any long walks. Very frustrating! Managed 3 or 4 miles all around Kensworth Quarry on Thursday, when I saw a Green Woodpecker and some Ground Ivy and Coltsfoot.  Coltsfoot
Other than that, I've just done some more bird watching in the garden. Finally managed to get a closer shot of the Great Spotted... | Commander of the Wild Empire | | | Comments 0
