Enjoyed an early morning walk at Fobney Nature Reserve. Smell of wood smoke from three barges moored up, morning sun showing the spring flowers at their best, reflections.....what can you not like about a morning like this?
Starling Chicks out of the nest this afternoon, back in this evening however so perhaps another 24/48 hours before departing their home of the last few weeks.
Blue Tit still sitting, no sign of partner again today so was once again leaving nest to search for food.
Good to see Barry, Wendi and the children this afternoon. A pleasure to show and explain where the birds are nesting. The monitors of course added to the excitement.
Time for bed now with alarm set for 4am. The dawn chorus walk tomorrow commences at 5am at Dinton. It is one of Lorna's friends who has put me under pressure for this event, you better turn up Cathy!
