River Views #194: Springtime Birds 1
Yesterday, I went down to the riverfront because I had heard that a pair of swans had built a nest neat the Stadthalle – and there they were! You can see them from the other side of the river or from the bridge, but you can also go down there and carefully look down on the nest from above. Of course I took a couple of photos and shot some video – and there were also some surprising other waterbirds around I had never seen before here. Time to reopen the River Views for Spring!

That is a Wood Pigeon with some twigs in its beak sitting on my kitchen windowsill – it’s building a nest in the thick ivy that grows in the corner left of my window! I had been wondering about all the recent cooing and flapping, but now I’ve actually seen them fly into the ivy. They first land in the Rowan, then go up to my windowsill and from there they almost throw themselves into the ivy.
