Saw a dipper today. Had finished parkrun and was standing on the bridge waiting for the family to come in so was watching the river, and a sole dipper in the middle of the river making loads of noise. Lovely birds.

Lots of birds this morning, including my favourite green woodpeckers laughing at me
(We almost had pheasant for lunch as there was one hiding under my car on the drive - Ralph didn't quite get around the other side quick enough to catch it)

Local green woodys must be great. Fancy a trade for a few days for one of our Worth valley dippers?

So haven’t seen the otter or fox that’s been around but were treated to 10 minutes of an ermine running around the garden. Got some lovely pictures as well.

We've had a leucistic goldfinch visiting the feeders in the last couple of days. No large white areas but just a kind of white highlighting throughout - very striking. Never seen one before.

You’d think leucistic birds wouldn’t last five mins but seem to do okay
