A late quick blog tonight with an harassing hour of the finer points of decorating at the nursery site fitting a curtain pole trying to drill and plug a wall made of plaster and black lime. Anyway, after a lot of blood , sweat and tears , not to mention the swearing, its up and secure.
Another stonking day with the first signs of local Swallow movement over lunch time with 14 over Foxhill in ones and twos along with 4 Alba Wagtails.
A large corvid over work this morning very high and >NE had the jizz of a Raven but impossible to say at that height without optics.
Nearing the weekend now so the weather looks set to change, a customer at work today told me snow is forecast ?.
