KIcking Around on a Piece of Ground in Your Hometown

 With the local

TAWNY OWL
continuing to kick each day off at about 04:00 in fine fashion and then having the desire to catch more Moths before Years End being slaked by another wayward

DARK CHESTNUT
it was thought time to get a closer look at the now swollen

CORMORANTS
performed a mini fly by.
Still dank but clearing the local

didn't paint a particularly promising picture

MOORHEN
get away with it!
At the Irrigation Pond there was naught but a single

GREY WAGTAIL

but what a little gem looking as still dressed in 'spring plumage'.
Just around the corner there were no surprises at the
Gravel Pit
where these days it has become commonplace for only the c3

LITTLE GREBES
to be seen

with the huge bonus (fluke) on the day being

capturing all 3 in the same frame of still and video.
(the only 2 surviving juveniles from this years breeding attempts)

adult, presumed parent bird.

Juvenile Preening
All else Wild, with the exception of yours truely, was this most obliging

COMMON BUZZARD

looking to be of the

2020 Vintage

A pulse of late sunshine certainly brightened up the

trees along the river while at dusk also left a

Small Tower of Colour in its Wake.
