Allotments 4 All

Found this on the Lottie today whilst digging a bed, I don't know how I missed it with the fork. :o

It was in amongst the FY Manure no sign of a nest, it was stone cold and you could feel something lumpy when shaken.

I think it was a Dunnock ::) :P

Oops! Edited to shrink piccy ;D

aaaaaaargh!
dunnocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i think that a pterodactyl egg  roy.......you could be on to something there.....

 :o  Jureckon it's Jurassic :o ;D of the Mesozoic Era :o Then I'm sure it's a Dunnock 8) ;D

you're obviously a Professor of the Dunnock...i bow to your superior knowledge.if you say its a dunnock i'm sure its a dunnock........ ;) ;D

That be a butterfly egg that be  ;)

Now your being silly ::) ;D

well am not so sure about Dunnock,  think it may be a Robins!!! but on the other hand it could be a blackbirds or even a Thrush.   ::) ::)

I think its an Ostrich egg Roy.Hehehehehe!! ;D ;D ;D ;D

::) Carol  ::) now the Robin and the Thrush has confused me no end ??? ;D Are you sure as I still think it is [size=05pt]a Cuckoo or a Dunnock[/size] ;D


Oh alright then it's a Blackbirds egg 8)













[size=06pt]I think![/size]

 :D :D

Well its like this Roy,  I had one of them in my garden too, but you see, I don't have a shhhhh    ;) cuckoo about here, plenty Blackbirds around and did have a Thrush, but, but it could be a   D  n    k  but dont tell anyone eh!

I did look up me bird book, they dont show birds eggs nowadays!!!

8) 8) 8)

Sorry to dis-appoint everyone, but according to my bird book the Dunnock's eggs are bright blue...will keep looking though

I've found one that could be a possibility I guess, what about a Kestrel...Previously mentioned book says they lay pale eggs that have heavy reddish brown blotches....???

I'll keep looking shall I ???

Yes I know I'm getting boring but sometimes you just have to do these things!

I have come up with a couple more likely possibilities althought hey aren't exactly exciting ones.

1: Jackdaw - Lays Pale blueish-green eggs with darker blotches.

2: Rook - Lays Pale blueish=green egss blotched with brown.

3: Hooded Crow - Lays Pale blueish-green eggs that are heavily blotched dark.


I have now saved your pic and will email it later to a knowledgable twitcher friend of my husband who will undoubtedly say "it's a ? "
