Didn’t see the curlews again on today’s race though did hear one within a mile of the start.

I was going to post about some birds I've seen but it all seems so hollow and empty by comparison with a hawfinch on the feeder! :)

Oh, well... Week's skiing in Austria, saw usual suspects such as choughs, but most interesting were crag martins in the village, my first hirundines of the year, and what I'm pretty sure was a middle spotted woodpecker. Have to say the identification was not rigorous, more on the basis that I got a quite decent view and it looked pretty like a great spotted woodpecker but not quite right, red crown different. I'm calling it, though!

Back home now to a spring world of chiffchaffs.

Yes. Absolutely beautiful isn't it.

When I was a kid, it was all about seeing them. Time has taught me the song is very often the real highlight.

See I can’t wait for the curlews to get here. So much the sound of spring for me.

Mr Hawfinch has been around again today, which is nice. I have Chiffchaff envy however.

Funny how one pines for the things you don’t have. I’d be chuffed to see a Greenfinch here but my Mum & Dad were over-run with them. They however loved seeing all our Siskins which we are very blasĂ© about.
