A male Feral Pigeon doing his best to impress a female on one of the window ledges of the tenement blocks opposite was the #FirstBirdOfMyDay 😺 (He was unsuccessful!)

The long see-ing melancholic call of a blackbird perched low in a bush in the churchyard, wondering where the warm sunny summer weather has gone... #firstbirdofmyday

Two ravens in the trailer cafe next door. Barely light and their beaks are full of slow rotted bark and seasonal insects. #FirstBirdOfMyDay #WhatsYours
