Birds at Beecraigs (and a couple of lambs)
On Sunday, we had a lovely trip to Beecraigs Country Park in West Lothian (you can read about it here). On Sunday I wrote that I hoped to share some of Crafty Green Boyfriend's photos of the birds and here they are.

and here are the goldcrest chicks being fed by one of the parents
they were left alone for only short periods between feeds
before the parent came back
We also enjoyed seeing the rare sheep breeds, these little lambs are Hebridean sheep

I love watching them feed the chicks!
ReplyDeleteHello, the baby birds are all adorable. I love the black sheep too. Happy Tuesday, enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteThose goldcrest chicks are something else in terms of cuteness.
ReplyDeleteLovely photo's so nice to see the chicks, and the rare black sheep.
