Turn My Head - Live

There is a sneaking suspicion that someone, or someone's are operating 
Behind My Back
by disceminating the Blog Link to uninvited guests?
An all time total of 800,000 HITS exactly
on the nose yesterday morning made up of a daily total of exactly 1,115
Many Thanks to All who have put in the effort but the spike was dulled today as back to just
121 
With a little more meat on the same bone again today we feel that 

Sunday Roast Fest

getting ever nearer with first out of the bag (trap) another 'first for year' 

 LESSER SWALLOW PROMINENT

 and similarly

 the first

 COCKCHAFER

or

May Bug

 With a degree of calculation and leaning on local knowledge, to add a further species or 2,

it was thought most likely that the recently ploughed, harrowed and seeded 

Maize Fields

of some collective 40 acres might just fit the bill for

Yellow Wagtail

while the Nationl Grid Pylons might just have been the roost for a 

Peregrine Falcon!

A thorough search produced neither, but then as if Sod's Law in reverse, driving the

Bournemouth Internationl 'Stay on the Ground' Port a

 PEREGRINE

flew directly in front of us

Thank You Very Much, We'll Have Some of That!

 One from the archive just to emphasize this

 Magnificent Creature

Yet another failed attempt was made to click / vid the 

Herring Gulls carrying nesting material was followed by the usual visit to the

Irrigation Pond

where it seemed both male and incubating Cananda Geese were AWOL

 A further search found them both on the northern bank

 without so much as a sniff of a Gosling 

(which we can live without)

 but there was also found a seeming forlorn

 COOT

 leting out an occassional

whimper with not one of the c7 youngsters in sight

We have to make a short apology before arriving at the

Gravel Pit-side

as we simply cannot resist Humbugs either in tins or in Ponds

so if you do not wish to see the result please turn away now!

this may well have been its

Very First Dive

 More Victuals Mum

They do say one picture can be worth a Million Words, to me this image just screams

PROCREATION!

 Turning to go we had covered no more than a couple of hundred yards before a

'delicate scratchy song'

had me turn-my-head to find a newly returned 

SEDGE WARBLER

knocking it out big time 

from the place where we once stood

Having listend to this heartfelt song a thousand times,

there was never once that it didn't bring tears to my eyes

(in fact it's just happened again)

Anyone, caught in you mystery, keep it angry keep it wispy
I've fallen down, drunk on your juices
I turn my head, turn my head
it's aimed at you

Funky temple, your dress is torn to shreds
Your eyes are crazy, I bowed to save my head and
I can't forget you; but I can't remember
turn my head, turn my head
it's aimed at you

Oh no, we came to love you all day
These b*st*rds are leavin', somebody's got to stay
whatever we called you, it's just a name
just a name
I turn my head (turn my head)

 On the way to the Heath there was a second Swallow, which after yesterday's first, still "does not make a Summer" and as if to endorse this and you can get around the conjecture

 "Cast not a clout until May is out"

now does that mean may blossom as above? if so start casting,

or does it mean the end of the month of May, if so we still have a bit of a wait!

There was also something that has become an all to unfamiliar sight over the last few weeks a

 TREECREEPER

which was a

treat to see

On the Heath the second

Apple Tree 

is now also in full bloom and while we like to think they are 'wild' it is far more likely

they are the product of the Royal Air Force and / or Army during maybe both

World War I and World War II

Otherwise, some decent views, not committed to celuloid, of a pair of

 GOLDCREST

 nest building but only the

Lady of the House

showing any interest in the Canon

 and yet another new arrival - HEART and all

 and we finish on a sad note as if we haven't got enough concerns already as

VANDALS

have chossen to smash some of our
