Is a site featuring the wildlife & countryside of the region (& maybe other subjects). From the River Chess to the River Ray; From Lodge Hill to Ivinghoe Hills; There's many a fine location, along the way. Now sadly with HS2 in our midst, the wildlife is disappearing by the day.

18th March..... Starlings.
Good to see the starlings continuing their nesting activities in the garden and coming close to the house to feed and clearly showing the difference between the male and female birds. The male now has a blue/grey base to the beak and the female an off white base as opposed to their dark winter beaks. Also will be interesting over the next few weeks to see most of the spots disappear on the male bird as the summer/breeding plumage appears.
