I'm cycling these days to keep fit and when I hear chickeny sounds from various gardens I have to stop and see where they are coming from...
Last week I called out to someone in his garden and asked to visit - he didn't seem to mind. He has everything feathery. All manner of ducks - who fly off to mate and reappear with ducklings asking to be let in. Lemon Sablepoots (he sells them POL), peacocks doing displays, geese etc...
I didn't used to be like this.
