The Bagsy Blog: Friday On My Mind

Tuesday, 26 April 2016

Falling behind a little, we have to go back as last Friday on which day we found just one new addition to the Year List in the Moth Traps.

SILVER Y

However, we didn't have to wait long or travel any great distance

to find the next as this

COMMON WHITETHROAT

was showing well

and performing for us just outside of the

Eco Recycling Works Gate.

This was followed by a performance of c4

NUTHATCH

cavorting among the OAK tops close to the Sewerage Works.

Met at Merritown Gate by this

GREY SQUIRREL

prospecting the inside of the hollow Apple Tree for food,

but as soon as the Video Camera was brought to bear

it chose to remain almost static.

Now, to the casual observer this may look every bit like a

SALLOW

in full bloom, but around here it is considered

BAIT

It is hoped that once Dave Foot catches a glimpse of this he will be

over here for the week-end as fast as his wheels will carry him?

A pair of very skittish

SHELDUCK
behind Eco soon took to the wing while the

FUNGI

PANAEOLUS SEMIOVATUS
didn't bat an eyelid.

LINNET

4 ROE DEER
inside the
Solar Panel Compound

CHAFFINCH
and

RABBIT
and finally from the
Trail Cameras
little new except we did catch this

ROE DEER

SCENT MARKING

and we do believe the usual local

FOX
there is a delay of a few seconds.
