          Plenty young Blue Tits, note more dead Gorse bushes

                                    Several Willow Warblers

A hot sunny day with temperatures starting to soar as we head for the weekend. Not the kind of weather birders want but must,nt grumble.

A quick drive round tonight proved worthwhile with a pair of Little Owls along with 2 young, a good record for south Queensbury.
