More cuckoos in a different part of the forest. Buzzards as wll.

And quite a few lapwings - not liking our presence and letting us know it.

I keep looking out for swifts but so far I've only seen swallows. I popped down to the river last evening and someone pointed to a woodpecker nest where mum & dad kept flying in and out and the babies were chirping away. heart Then I heard a cetti's as I rode away. My ride was topped out by seeing the pair of swans with their babies on the mill pond, too far away to count them but at least 5 I think. :)

Stef bought me this for my birthday. It was made by a local artist Jane. It is utterly exquisite

good news about the ducklings flanker! That is a gorgeous present DT!

I came in to say; "I'VE SEEN A SWALLOW!" First one in spring for three years!!! So lovely.

Will it find the barn, will it like it, will it nest?

Holds breath.......
