Clouds - One Direction

With the adverse effect of the stiff breeze countered in part

by the now more than accptable temperatures still the

Moths keep trickling in.

First's for the Year

included

 a most obliging

 CLOUDED BORDER

 SMALL CLOUDED BRINDLE

 GREY DAGGER

and

 TRUE LOVER'S KNOT

 The young

 COOT

is still being nurtured by both parents and seems to be doing very, 

 while the turning of the

Reptile Covers

 produced a further c2

 SMOOTH SNAKES

 but in the process we flushed

 either a roosting or nesting

 NIGHTJAR

 with the cover now moved to hopefully a more appropriate position?

 For the second time this week the viewable beat of the

Moors River

 has been alive with the songs of a number of

REED WARBLER

 while additionally a

 LITTLE EGRET

flew along the tree line before landing close by.

 Starting the drive back to the bridleway

ahead we sighted a second family group of

 CANADA GEESE

 and within the 

Solar Panel Compound

yet another

CUCKOO

it has been a very good year for them thus far!

One of the benifits of the fresh breeze was the

Theraputic Effect of the Swaying Birches

and yet another flight by

NHS Airways

Finally from one of our 

Weymouth Correspodants

 the latest veiw across 

Weymouth Bay.
Although not shown the whole of the P and O fleet (7) are now parked there!

Our spies have been out and tell us that this is just the foundation for the new footpath between

The Isle of Portland

(in the far distance)

and Durdle Door?
