Sunny, 22º, light SW.
A day spent catching up with some needed
gardening chores and young birds "coming out" in to the garden.
Young Robins in
the garden today with 2 plus youngsters and 2 adults in the rear garden and another pair of
Robins with at least 3 young along the side of the garden by the brook.
Forgot to mention yesterday but there were at least 6 sites
were I saw young Robins, looks like good timing all fledging locally!
A young Great-spotted
Woodpecker also in the garden today, did not recognise the feeders as an
available food source but found some water.
A Pied Wagtail
carrying food out in the front garden..........presumably nesting nearby and
8 House Sparrow regular on a neighbour’s
feeder out front.
4 Swallow, 6 House Martin and 4 Swift regular overhead through the day and the odd Red Kite and Buzzard overhead.
2 Stock Doves, 2 Song Thrush, 2 Moorhen and up to 4 Mallards
still regular garden visitors of note and a Blackcap and Chiffchaff
in song.
