Swallow's but no Amazons

Well, as predicted yesterday's Post proved to be the Crowd Puller we hoped it would be smashing the Hit List previous record during the new generation of the Bagsy Blog!

2,285 of you and Thank You Very Much and more next Sunday.

A lot of

KESTREL

activity close to the homestead, long before getting to the Moth Traps, with both
male

and female birds looking in good nick so now just awaiting the arrival of

juveniles like these taken last year at the nearby

horse stable nest box.
Another 'first for the year' was this most welcome

NARROW-WINGED PUG

along with a
Bevy of Brindled Beauty's

with one she-male leaving a small deposit which were scattered to the wild.
With the Sun up it was impossible not to include another

shining 'black'

PHEASANT
just ambling by.
Along the main Bridleway

the first of

c3

and first for the year

WHITETHROAT

along with

yet another irresistible female

WHEATEAR

(the wait is long so "snap 'em while you can"!)

Returning to Base again it was impossible to pass the single

ROOK

by at Pond-side and even closer to home

taken from the doorstep in fact

what may well be 'our' own

SWALLOWS
that nest readily in the farmhouse garage.
