Nathalie: April 2010
http://nmahieu.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Wandering and wondering in Fulham. Friday, 16 April 2010. Kestrel among the tombstones. On my way to the shops via Margravine Cemetery 2 afternoons ago, I was walking via the grass as mostly usual when I noticed at the edge of, but slightly out, a big group of pigeons another bird which I took initially for one of those weird colour pigeons. We don't have many in the cemetery, most are fairly classic, but we still have a few like this one:. On the ground in the cemetery! It then flew from tree to tree, p...

Nathalie: Winter Thrushes are not only for Winter sometimes
http://nmahieu.blogspot.com/2011/04/winter-thrushes-are-not-only-for-winter.html
Wandering and wondering in Fulham. Monday, 25 April 2011. Winter Thrushes are not only for Winter sometimes. What I had been hoping for back in February. Mistle Thrush are breeding in Margravine Cemetery! I barely saw them in between, which is amazing considering how noisy and bold they can be, so I was thinking that they might have tried outside of the cemetery as I would see them quite often fly North, towards the Tube line. Then yesterday I saw one of the birds bring food to 2 chicks. A mountain dwell...

Nathalie: Storks in Normandy
http://nmahieu.blogspot.com/2011/07/storks-in-normandy.html
Wandering and wondering in Fulham. Monday, 18 July 2011. A month ago I went to visit my family back in Normandy and one afternoon, with my parents, we went to visit some of the White Stork nests that they know of in the Marais du Cotentin et du Bessin. Out of the 4 nests we checked, 3 had young in them but the fourth one, high up in a tree, had been partially destroyed. We had some nice views of an adult looking for food in a field. If you look at the leaves, you'll also notice that it was really windy.

Nathalie: 2 for the price of 1
http://nmahieu.blogspot.com/2011/03/2-for-price-of-1.html
Wandering and wondering in Fulham. Tuesday, 8 March 2011. 2 for the price of 1. Like I do every week when I go to the supermarket, especially at high tide, I checked for rings on gulls' legs. In particular, I was hoping to see the semi-regular one, white A6LK. Which I had last seen on 8th December. And bingo! At the end of the scan, when I thought all hope was gone, there it was:. Then on the panel with a few others (there was an exceptionally high number of them that day):. Is that profile good for you?

Nathalie: A gull with a bone to pick
http://nmahieu.blogspot.com/2011/03/gull-with-bone-to-pick.html
Wandering and wondering in Fulham. Thursday, 10 March 2011. A gull with a bone to pick. At the supermarket yesterday I was taking photos of a Common Gull hoping to read its metal ring (unfortunately it was presenting the closure part) when I noticed the Herring Gull YW3T from last week. I then noticed a Common Gull had found itself a (chicken? Bone to nibble on but it turned out I wasn't the only one to have noticed:. Where is my bone? A pair of Greylags. Which I rarely see there. View my complete profile.

Nathalie: July 2010
http://nmahieu.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Wandering and wondering in Fulham. Monday, 26 July 2010. How amazing is that? The Black-headed have been back for a little while now, their numbers on the foreshore between Crabtree Wharf and Hammersmith Bridge are almost at winter level already. And there are a lot more juveniles this year than last. But what I'd really like is a Med(iterranean) Gull. I did at the time report my sighting via the BTO. Saturday, 10 July 2010. I know it's been a long time since my last post, I pretty much haven't had the t...
