I thought a garden chat and photo thread would be a good idea.
This way, we have a space to share current pictures and discuss dandelions and other plants.

Very cute!

We haven't had any nesting birds in our garden for the past two years, after our cat ate the young fledglings. The birds seem to remember that.

Really?
At my parents’ place, there were always birds, despite having up to five cats at times. Since something has been wrong with the magpies for the past three years and my one tomcat caught one almost daily, there are actually quite a few now.
Here, birds are actively nesting in the overgrown shrubs. Cats hardly manage to get through there.

Mr. Erpel had given me instructions for lice treatment. He is always around and just kept making noise.
Too bad I didn’t have a photo of it.

Well, it could also be that the many magpies here have contributed to this. I hadn’t really considered that yet. At the neighbors’ houses, they breed normally, but all our nesting boxes are empty this year. We have plenty of birds in the garden itself, but they no longer nest here.

In any case, he caught a few of the poor souls who were not so wise during their first flight attempts and landed on the ground.
