WildPix competition

This year I decided to enter one of the RSPB competitions. It is called WildPix and it is a photography competition! I took a photo of a bee while I was at a road/fell race. It hasn't been entered yet but will be soon

Garden Adventure 1

As well as completing challenge 1 I had an extra adventure during the challenge! I actually got to go face to face with a blackbird! Although I didn't get a picture I did have a good time going out into my garden and watching birds come and enjoy themselves :-)

Bug house

Today I was outside and I got a bit bored. I found some stones and feathers and decided to make a bug house . It has dandelions, leaves, stones, acorn shells (as cups) bark and feathers. It should at least bring ladybirds because I read it in my nature guide.

Magpie Nest

A couple of weeks ago, we got magpies coming to nest. They made their nest in the tree at the end of our garden! The mother and father have been seen ( by me) together. The nest is hidden by the branches, but I can just see it from the upstairs windows that I can see the tree from.

My nature spotting kit

When I go nature spotting I take some kit with me. The most used things are my iPod, binoculars and a nature spotting guide. So with this kit I am prepared to watch nature then I can post it on this blog!

1st Challenge

My 1st challenge is to spot 10 species of birds in 2 days! Do you think I can do it? Leave a comment and tell me if you think I can :-)

My poem

The birds are flapping their wings so,

As I watch the flowers grow,

Spring is here I can feel it, 

Oh, look there's a blue tit,

There is blossom on that tree,

And on that flower is a bumblebee,

As I look from side to side,

I really have to decide,

Is spring here,

Or is it near?
