pied wags

At a moth trap event, part of Llanerchaeron's Bioblitz, we released a beautiful Purple Thorn which winged its way into the grey skies and over the roof of the Mansion House except that on the roof were a pair of 'dishwashers' ....thankyou very much! They then positioned themselves in a tree overlooking our traps but we were more careful with the rest of the trapload!
The carpark chaffinch was a cheeky chappie instantly appearing on sight of my marmalade sandwich but mindful that John Val might be watching I denied it... until it threatened me.
At home a blackcap was competing at evensong...I told it to choose Tom Jones.
