Sitting side by side on a fence, these two, fluffy young birds didn’t seem to mind at all taking part in Becky’s October squares. They must have known we would be kind and that they were going to be in great company this month.

So, autumn is creeping up on us and you try to make it easier by giving us photos of two birds? Well, it worked. I feel better now!!

It feels nothing like autumn here, Mari, but I almost never manage to capture birds on a wire. One look at me and they’re off! 😊💕💕

I was watching carefully to see if there was just the one bird, but either it moved or there were definitely two. Shame you couldn’t get them together. Swallows by the looks of those tails. We didn’t see any swifts here again this summer and the last time I saw swallows was up in Scotland where Margaret has just been, I wonder why there weren’t any down here? And will the starlings will return? Even nature is confused by world events.

I thought I’d answered this? The shot with both was singularly unimpressive and I quite liked them in sequence on slideshow. Just me and my peculiarities 🤗💕💕

Not that I have seen. Slideshows don’t work on the phone btw. Or at least not on mine.

So did you not see the azulejos on Saturday? They were rather nice. They work on my Huawei because I checked but I think on older phones they don’t. Sorry 🙄💕💕

Mine is a newish phone also Huawei. No worries as I always read posts on the laptop, I just glance at them on the phone.

Just had a look on the phone and the message is that this slideshow requires java scripts. Obviously I don’t have it installed.
