Installing Indoor Cat Tree

[Egluntyne]

We have an enormous crow who visits our garden regularly.

 

We have all just stood and watched with fascinated horror as it it murdered and devoured a mouse.

 

It walked around with the mouse's intestines hanging out of its mouth for a good 5 minutes, then wiped its beak on the grass and then gobbled the rest up.

 

Yukkk.

 

Pity it wasn't a rat.

 

Has rather put me off getting meal ready.

Urgh!! how horrible...I know wwe have a Sparrow hawk that vcomes occasionaly to the garden and it is one evil looking bird..

I saw it take a sparrow of the bird table once and it was so quick !!!

Thankfully it flew away with the poor thing in it's claws and didn't eat it in front of me. Nature can be so cruel sometimes.

I mistakenly read the title of this thread as monstrous COW so was expecting a completely different subject

 

Not planning on having something resembling intestines for dinner then? Spaghetti with tomato sauce perhaps

The sparrow hawks in our garden worry me around the chickens. They are quite determind to get dinner.

 

What a horrible thing to see Eglutine, especially before preparing tea. Sounds like a good excuse to get a take away

I keep thinking of Alice and Dum and Dee whenever I see the title

That was what inspired me Bronze.

 

"Just then flew by a monstrous crow as big as a tar barrel it frightened both our heroes so, they quite forgot their quarrel."

Don't mention crows to me - or Martin!

 

We are very short of duck eggs because the silly duck lays outside the Eglu - and the monstrous crows come and eat them The abntams also lay outside..........

 

The crows are also learning how to get inside the Eglu and steal eggs They just keep hopping about until the hens get fed up with chasing them off

The crows ripped up my sweetcorn seedlings!

 

Do you think its a band of the same crows, travelling around causing chaos
