Little Brown Something


I noticed a little brown fuzzball hopping around the balcony today – it was not easy to get a decent photo of it because it was so fast. But at least we identified it as an Eurasian Wren, which we call Zaunkönig (Fence King) here in Germany. I also recorded a little birdsong today which I wasn’t able to identify yet – does anyone know what kind of birds are talking in this question-and-answer dialogue with each other?
[Update: the consensus on Google+ seems to be that the great tits are making these sounds!]

I love this deliciously wild front yard with all the crocuses and snowdrops coming up!

City Views #138: That other School


While we’re talking about schools – this is the other building on the same schoolyard as the Eduardschule which used to be the separate school Muhrenkampschule until it was merged with its bigger neighbour about a decade ago. This is a black and white version of a colour photo I had originally posted last March.
