All quiet up here in the gods today with dark grey skies and light rain turning to heavy drizzle and fog by late afternoon just in time for Easter. With the wind changed around migration is reported to be once again on the move so hopefully things will pick up over the weekend.
A quiet grapevine today tells me that everyone was getting the same sort of bird less day .
Woodpigeons are now starting to nest around the village along with Collared Doves whilst Blackbirds are just getting into full song.
A day off tomorrow so I,ll be getting my fog glasses on in the morning and having a scout about.
