The Woodland Garden (Saturday 9th April 2022)

My birdwatching from the porch continues. I've seen a number of easily identifiable blue tits, robins, goldfinches, robins, wood pigeons, jackdaws and blackbirds. The extra shows two goldfinches demolishing the sunflower hearts with a great tit in the background on the peanut feeder. The coal tits haven't put in an appearance that I've seen today, or any juveniles of any kind.

The goldfinch on the right flew onto the branch in the blip. The slightest movement sends the birds away, even slowly opening the door from the house to the porch, so I have lowered the blind as far as possible ready for my next session in an attempt to be invisible.

Cornershop were formed in Leicester in 1991 playing a fusion of Asian-British music, indie rock, alternative and electronic dance music, and are still an active musical force today, though the album from which this comes, When I Was Born for the 7th Time, is still their best known album as it contained Brimful Of Asha. Paula Frazer comes from Georgia and Arkansas and recorded with Tarnation, whose album Mirador was also released in 1997, and made a number of solo albums. She is also a professional weaver.
