"Where the Raven Flies There's Jeopardy" - Genesis

Spring-like weather certainly seems to have taken a grip so all that is needed now
are a few nights of total cloud cover (8 Oktas) and up the anti on temperature
 Having said that there was, after an all too long a wait, a
New Species for the Year in the Moth Trap
 POWDERED QUAKER
and as we reached the Common another probable migrant
(a vocal male)
BLACKCAP
We say probable as there have been c2 overwintering birds, both males,
but this comes complete with a couple of what are considered 'nifty' videos
 with predated Dragonfly
taken last year when the Blog was inactive
 Just as pleasing but a little less authentic this
 (Black) PHEASANT
looked resplendent in the bright sunshine as did this
 SILVER BIRCH
but losing some of its sheen in the clicking
 As far afield as we have ever recorded them
the pair of
RED-LEGGED PARTRIDGE
 were at the airport perimeter fence 
inside of which are now a minimum of
 27 British Airways airliners plus the 4 Virgins
(reports from another observer tell of 40 BA jets) 
It's an ill wind that doesn't blow somebody some good,
parking fees must amount to a pretty penny?
 The
DARTFORD WARBLER
appeared for only as long as the 
video clip shows
 while the 
GORSE
(a plant which blooms in 'every' month of the year)
also looked a proper job, but had we been a little more stealthy 
on the way back there might have been more seen of the
 RAVEN
settled on one of the 
Solar Panel Compound
security cameras
but not for long once I happened along.
