    Thank you Di that's very close but it's not it. I live in Durham and I've seen this bird twice beside the road down our back lane which is all fields. I'll post a picture of the buffalo weaver and explain the differences.
    My bird had a thinner redder beak, a smaller rounded head and is black. Somehow taller and thinner too. But it does have these white markings. Can someone help?

    So this is the buffalo weaver......anyone any ideas of my bird...

    You can get a mutant blackbird which has white flashes on them. We had one visiting our garden for about three years, haven't seen it this year though but they don't have a red beak.
    The only other bird black bird with a red beak I can think of is a moorhen but they are bigger than thrushes so I have no idea.

    Morning. The Dove men is showing on Asda.com in 3 for £5. Was it always like that? The yellow one isn't showing in 3for £5. What do you think?

    Edit!!!
    Ignore me! Yellow not in offer anyway. Blue good to go still as my partner in crime reminded me it always showed.

    Morning, family round for meal today to say farewell to ds2 who is off to China for a year early tomorrow:( Fantastic opertunity teaching English at a uni there. Size wise he'll fit in well, just bought age 11/12 underwear and he's 22! Also age jeans age 12. At least he will have a good choice of shoes out there as he struggles to get a six that looks adult.
    Hope you all have a good day:)

    Bless you Josie, hope it goes well.

    I cried for weeks when DS1 left x
    I thoroughly enjoyed algebra, treated it like another language :D

    I stopped learning maths at school the day that they told me a+b=c


    It is just madness!

    Actually confession time I have been dabbling. There is a tale I have joined a group not an elite one finally got let into one for my holiday, couldn't understand I seemed to be ignored when I did new posts. :o I eventually realised I am only sharing them with my 2 friends yes I have another one now. :D

    Yes just take it into the post office and they will cash it for you. What a result, nicely done :T
