So far so good.
Dinner followed by some television. Husband was trying to get BBC iplayer to work when there was a kerfuffle outside and a bird banged into the window. A blue tit was flying around in an agitated fashion so I got up to see what was going on.
A magpie had a baby blue tit in its mouth. I banged the window and the magpie dropped its prey. I rushed outside but I was too late: baby blue tit was dead. I tried massaging its tiny chest but it was still.
I buried it in the garden.
Husband pointed out that I probably deprived a baby magpie of its supper and I know it's the way of nature but I don't care. Nasty birds.
