Its lovely seeing the Xmas trees I bought a real 5ft 1 and I wasn't too good to put it up, so I gave it away to a family near by with children who I know didn't have 1. They were a bit sceptical to take it at 1st, but did, I'm glad. It was better then seeing it stood waiting. Gave them the lights n decs for it too. I don't mind not having 1 this year I've got lights in window and window stickers up etc.1

That's very kind of you @Sandy_123
I'm sure they appreciated it!
I'm glad you've still managed to get a bit Christmassy with the lights and stickers. We used to have Christmas stickers on the windows growing up, but it was always my mum's job so that no marks were left 0 -
Lol they do mark the windows. My 2 year old granddaughter decided they needed rearranging all together in 1 corner of the window

I haven't done any house decorating this year, but I did do some festive biscuit decoration recently.
Here's one of my reindeer. I tried to give them a smile, but I guess it's been a difficult year for all of us...

"Wow! That's really impressive @Ookpik I really like that you've made the decorations yourself. Which bird is your favourite? If you have one?" The tree, cones and the lights were bought. But the rest of the decor is what l made.
My favourite bird is the "Blackbird". because l find them so comical to watch. During the springtime, The blackbird fletchings appear. They are like little children into everything. My second favourite is the ! "Hoopoe", comical to look at and comical when they walk. l saw one marching the "Goosestep" That was abroad .by the way0 -

Aw that's lovely, there's something very striking about blackbirds. I've just googled a 'Hoopoe' and wow, they are colourful and very funky. Have you spotted one in the UK before?0 -

No, l haven't spotted one in the U.K. But where l stayed in the south of Bulgaria"Creme",, pronounce as Shrem, is the place saw it. This is because of the vast wilderness of the open countryside. lt has a huge array of wildlife species. l even saw a ladybird spider .and they are huge.l have a photo of it, if you like to see it. lt is the size of a person hand0 -
Wow, that's so cool that you saw one in Bulgaria! Amazing. I would say yes to the picture, but I'm quite scared of spiders, so I might have to pass on that oneNo, l haven't spotted one in the U.K. But where l stayed in the south of Bulgaria"Creme",, pronounce as Shrem, is the place saw it.

l used to be scared of spiders. But l got used to them when l learnt more about them, and it progressed from there handling them
. Here is a photo of a "Golden Orielli! [excuse spelling] what l find so attractive of these birds is ,they dance in the air when mating making a beautiful enchanting sound that seems to be like a ghostly angel singing to the woods.And there colour is ,,Wow.
And did you know, 100 years ago Golden orielli's were in England ,somewhere in the Norfolk and Suffolk region . But due to the culling for the fashoin industry, killing these birds for womens hats during the roaring 20's they became extinct in the U.K. These birds still remain in Bulgaris. Hence l sais "Still remain" Bulgaria's human activity is encroaching fast in the wildlifes habitat . l do hope they will protect much of the wildlife habitat

Wow! How beautiful, I've never seen a bird that colour pink before, it almost looks as if someone has dyed their feathers! That's awful about their extinction in the UK and such a shame. Hopefully they will remain and repopulate in Bulgaris, as it would be such a shame to see them become extinct!Ookpik said:l used to be scared of spiders.
