Cheery Chaffinch


This little chap was one of a number of  regular visitors to my campsite in the summer, morning and evening at mealtimes he was never far away. 

Although he would approach quite closely he was still very wary but a welcome visitor.

I love our British wildlife and getting up close to any wild creature, even something as "common" as the Chaffinch is always a thrill and should never be taken for granted. Earlier today I was listening to a song "No Longer There" by The Cat Empire, it poses the question what will you leave behind for the generations that follow you? It's great song so click on the link and have a listen.

There is so much in our world we should cherish but so much that we destroy and we need to take better care of things or one day even common species will be harder to see.
