A Week Is A Long Time In....................

..........................Birding!

Haven't posted since last weekend.  Went for a day break(ish) walk with the dog.  All started well.  Out of the street, quick left and a male Sparrowhawk flew low over the road.  One of my favourite birds, good so far!  Onwards to WHIE, a hundred yards up the road and back at the entrance a man with a van arrived with his FOUR dogs, three terriers and a whippet.  Beagles, you may know, are at best stubborn and at worst disobedient so twice I was off chasing her through the tufty, knee-high grass like a lumbering cross between an Impala and a Masai tribesman as clearly his pooches were more appealling.

Birds?  The usual.  Nothing out of the ordinary, I am afraid.
