I developed one of those flu type bugs last Thurday and have spent most of the time since then sleeping or watching daytime television.
Anyway I'm linking up with Julia's Stamping Ground where we have a look at what others have been up to since last week.
My contribution this week is a recent photo from my craft cabin window. I see all sorts of interesting goings on when I'm inside.
This is a regular visitor to the feeder. No it's not a fish!
It's a wood pigeon. They mainly feed on the ground or on the bird table. This funny little guy clings on by his feet and hangs upside down to feed. I wonder if he ever gets indigestion.

Hello Barb, what a gorgeous view from your craft window. Thanks for the info on the wood pigeon I really did think you had a fish hanging out in your garden. Have a lovely week.

I have feeders outside my craft room window and sit and study the little creatures all the time. These pigeons are something I have never heard of. Very interesting! Hope you feel better soon! Glenda #31
I hope you'll feel better soon.
Feeding upside down? Whatever floats your boat....
What a lovely view you have from your cabin. The garden looks like heaven!
Thanks for your earlier visit,
Have a good week,

That must be the most athletic pigeon in the world! I've never seen one do acrobatics like that before :-)
I'm sorry to hear you've been poorly...the weather probably hasn't helped has it? Boiling one minute, chilly the next....you've done the right thing in being kind to yourself. Let's hope you start to pick up this week.
Hugs, LLJ 16 xxx
I am sorry that you haven't been feeling well. But I love your view! My space is in the basement! But it is roomy! Upstairs, we spend a lot of time watching the squirrels trying to get into our bird feeder. My husband finally put on a dome shaped thing on the pole and they can't get past it. But we love watching them try! Thanks for your earlier visit, Barb. #18
Hi Barb, what a glorious view, I'd never get anything done, lol. Those woodpigeons are very determined,aren't they? Hope you are getting over your flu now, Have a great week, Hugs, Shaz #7 xx
Looks just like a fish. I was trying to make it out! Glad you gave an explanation. Hope you are on the mend. #45
I had a two day bug is well. Hope you're feeling better. Thanks for the look around.

What a delightful picture you are showing us this week Sandra. Sorry to hear you have been laid low with flu - nasty horrible thing. Hope you are soon up and about - hot drinks and rest are all you can do.
Hugs, & Thanks for your earlier visit to me - Neet 25 xx
Oh so sorry Barb to hear you have the flu. Hope you get well soon. I love the yard picture, I would never get anything done if I had that lovely view out my window.
Hugs Diane
Ooh I hope you are feeling better. it always seems so unfair to catch a bug when the weather is nice out. that bird is so ( strange and cool) :) thanks for the earlier visit ~Stacy #48
The food certainly goes to his head LOL. I love views outside craft windows, I think everyone should share that view as well as the desk every week

I love your view. How do you ever get any work done? I would sit staring out the window the whole time. But I am easily side tracked. Squirrel! Or Wood Pigeon! LOL I hope you feel better quickly.

Great photo from your window - I do hope you are feeling much better. x Jo
What a lovely view from your widow: I love that; a Craft Cabin....hmmm, wonder if Hubby would go for that! I hope you feel better soon. Thanks for stopping by.

Oh I really hope you're starting to feel better, a week of flu is debilitating,be sure to convalesce properly! Your view is divine....you have a beautiful garden. Despite of or including the crazy wood pigeon!
Now there is a bird who thinks he is a squirrel! Or maybe an acrobat in his past life. I love the view from your craft cabin. I think I could sit there for hours and watch the world go by. Thanks for the visit earlier and my mom agrees with you that Charles the cat is the boss. Don't tell that to his brother, Dio, though because Dio is quite convinced it is him. My hubby says all the cats are wrong and he is top cat. Yeah... whatever. Judy #50
What a lovely view from your cabin, hope you are feeling much better now
