| I was sitting at our kitchen table and eating my dinner.
The bird alighted for perhaps 10 seconds on this neighbouring roof corner, just long enough for me to pick up my phone and snap a single shot. Then it was gone as I was moving to video mode.
I’ve seen it on fences and trees behind our house previously but never on this perch. |
