Beefsteak 305 Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 Been out and about 'playing' with my new toys today and saw this fellow nest building in the trees at the bottom of my garden.!!! do you think he knows something we don't ?? (Apart from the fact that he's a Rook and they are gregarious and usually nest together !) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Limey 242 Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 A friend of mine who lives here just returned from a trip to the Isle of Wight to visit his mother - and reported to me yesterday that the daffodils were poking up! Summat ain't right! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ayupmeducks 1,730 Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 Maybe the pole shift is affecting wildlife and flora???? Been a few weeks since I checked on it, but it has been recorded the north magnetic pole is moving at 40 miles per year. Scientists are baffled, but say it was predicted years back. So far our average temps are normal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Compo 10,328 Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 Here in the far north of Scotland rooks often build trial nests around Xmas. The main nest building gets under way in February but the winter storms usually blow them out of the trees a few times before they finally finish them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
