Little Wing - Jimi Hendrix

 With the overnight temperature hanging on to a balmy +8°C for a while now we have added yet another new moth species to the Annual Moth List by way of:-

DOTTED BORDER

backed up by something of a noticable influx of the more common creatures on the wing.

Garden Birds 

HOUSE SPARROWs
prospecting the Nest Boxes but no signs of nesting material carrying quite yet while others
further north at the Sewerage Works was found a small increase in
CHIFFCHAFF

with some having been vocal for a while with presumed new arrival

LONG-TAILED TITs
remain mute but surely it will not be long? while a second male
TUFTED DUCK
has joined the relatively longish-stayer at the Gravel Pit as another lone
RED KITE
cut across that air-space which was certainly not the previous one as all
'secondary feathers' were in place and in tact which just left the Moors River to draw a blank,
on birds but a single
OLD ENGLISH WHITE
at the western extremities of the Heath,
where last but by no means least, a small but uncounted number of just about vocal
SISKINs,
again First for the Year!
There's Always Tomorrow Cus Here Comes the Sun!
