Nice selection of birds at Holme Bird Observatory – see HERE

Also some lovely pictures of birds today HERE

My mother said she has never seen so many chiffchaffs as she did this morning, when out birding at Holme.

My bird of the day at work was a lovely male Blackcap with a great tit at the top of a fir tree right outside the window. Collared Doves, blackbirds and robins feeding on the grass below the window and several Chiffchaffs singing at lunchtime in the wood as I sat in my car.

Looking forward to birding tomorrow. Several things in life right now making me angry, cross, frustrated, sad and unhappy – caused by other people. I am going somewhere to escape most of the human race tomorrow – I need solitude, fresh air, blue skies, birds and the sea – all of these give me peace and happiness.

Have a good weekend everyone.
