And a partridge?

My two favourites trees in their winter plumage, playing host (though you probably can't spot them on a small photo) to:

Eight magpies - 

'One for sorrow, Two for joy, Three for a girl, Four for a boy, Five for silver, Six for gold, Seven for a secret never to be told, Eight for a wish, Nine for a kiss, Ten for a bird you must not miss.'

Four jackdaws and

Four wood pigeons.

(All on the ground.) 

 

I couldn't see a partridge and they're not pear trees, so there the similarity ends! But we can all have a wish...
