Cut the lawns this morning and worked on the alpine bottle wall this afternoon. Almost completed the rh/wall so should be starting on the lh/wall pretty soon now.
Thought would clear up the bird food store as not seen any mice for a couple of weeks now. The new propagator (a gift) was full of spent sunflower seeds and chewed fleece. Lifted a plastic pot carrier and there were these two mice huddled together in a ball of fleece and sunflower seeds. One ran but stayed within the store which I managed to photograph. The mouse returned to the nest after about five minutes. Have set a trail camera now.
May have lost the male sparrowhawk as one flew into Lavers shop Monday afternoon and was still there at 5pm tonight. Can't believe it will last another day without drink or food, bad news. Last seen in the garden yesterday morning.
Tonight I attended a very good and productive Fobney Reserve meeting. EA, TW and RSPB are all very impressed in the reserve has developed over the three years. New fencing and planting has tidied up the reserve and now has a defined conservation area. Dates agreed for forthcoming walks/talks during the summer, hope the weather is an improvement on the rain we experienced all through the winter.
