Fragile Do Not Bend
LTT flapping at my window this morning, I assume it's trying to attack its reflection. 🙄

Despite it being a bit grey and wet here May got off to a good start with spots of Black and Arctic Terns, Sanderling and Grey Plover in amongst around 40 species including 7 different waders on this morning's walk. The Great Northern Diver didn't appear for me but apparently it's still here, though now in summer plummage and flying around so departure is imminent.

2 grey wagtails and a nuthatch yesterday while walking the dog, and before he could scare them away.

We were out most of the day and when we got back the LTT was still having a go at the windows. I wonder if he (I assume it was a he) was at it all day?

HowFar?
There was a bullfinch outside the kitchen window this morning, in the field at the back of the bungalow. I don't see many so I was delighted.
Then I saw another one on my cycle into Donegal this afternoon.
Orange tip butterflies were out in force as well, enjoying some spring sunshine.

bonners
Excitement on the bonners' feeders this morning, the siskin have been back on the feeders, been watching them off and on for twenty minutes
The fledgling blackbird is showing the same amount of intelligence as dad. Managed to get in the ground feeder, but couldn't work out how to get out!

Dad blackbird feeding three 'well on their way' young in my in laws Devon garden, a displaying rock pipit over Lyme Regis harbour and a brute of a great black backed gull with a huge mouthful of food (baby rabbit, duckling or moorhen?) the limited highlights of my weekend

A LWTh song is good enough J2R! Great coastal sightings flyingfinn; Siskins in May are special bonners..breeding nearby? Cetti's as usual for me this morning, at two sites. Stonechat for the second time in a few days within the City boundary.
