What no birds?!?Not many anyway. On Friday morning whilst walking the daogs in light rain up on the forest was treated to the unusual sight of a displaying Snipe (can't remember having seen that away from dawn/dusk before), shortly after which one or the same was seen giving the "chip-per" call a few times whilst decending on V-shaped wings. Again I don't recall having heard that call during the day, and always assumed it was given from a perch. Perhaps the overnight rain and thunderstorms had something to do with it. Later on the same walk a family party of four Woodlarks was nice. Other than that all I can offer is a party of four Ravens over Bashley CC whilst we (narrowly) beat them, the second narrow victory of a weekend in which I contributed a massive two runs (also a catch and a stumping). 10:57 PM - Sunday, June 28, 2009 - post comment

Description A worryingly obsessive number of entries are likely to be boring counts from my Barton vis migging efforts. Hopefully there may occasionally be something interesting instead. Apologies now for what is likely to be a distinct lack of pretty pictures!
