Yellowhammer in Wood Lane by rosiekind

Yellowhammer in Wood Lane

I had a long talk with a couple of people who had walked from Moggerhanger via Sheerhatch Wood and down through Wood Lane to Danish Camp. They had had lunch there and were on their way back. They saw me with my camera and realised straight away that I was trying to get pics of birds so asked me what I had seen. It makes a change to meet others who are interested in birds and of course I had to wait to see the yellowhammers. This little fellow kindly obliged by posing in the brambles for me. Farmers are doing such a lot of harm by clearing ditches and roadsides completely of habitat for the birds. I cannot understand how they can be allowed to get away with it.
Great shot love the colours

I hate those machines that go down hacking everything away without any discretion. The poor birds have had a hard winter already.

Lovely photo. I haven't seen one of these for a long time. Agree about the hedges. Don't understand why they do it.

@padlock @khirsch @hollandcrew @libertylady @carolmw @thresheg @busylady @judithg @dandolo Thanks for all the kind comments and Favs. I'm glad I'm not the only one who cannot understand why the farmer's destroy the hedges, etc.
