Sunday 3rd May 2015







After a wet start the rest of the day turned out warm and sunny. Pretty windy however.
Thoroughly enjoyed a morning Fobney walk. Full of activity which included Kestrel being chased by a Magpie, Heron stalking while looking for food, Cormorants sunbathing on the pylon, Oystercatcher still about and one of my favs' the Grey Wagtail showing off at the weir but the best was seeing six Swifts. So local now.
Pushed myself somewhat with the walking but what a morning.
                        The afternoon was even better, an Orange Tip, Small Blue, Small white, Yellow Brimstone and a Peacock Butterfly all in the back garden. 
The blue tits still feeding one another, I do find this strange.
                          Marked out the site for project 2015 and dug up thousands of lilies, could not believe how these had spread.
