24th: Had a blackcap visit the garden briefly first thing in the morning, later another summer visitor, a chiffchaff was heard when on a
walk, again from home and while looking for it a muntjac appeared out of
some dense brambles, stood for awhile, then disappeared back in.
Passed some goats enjoying the sunshine on our way back home and more
ewes and their newly born lambs being turned out.
25th: Wednesday
morning a pair of bullfinches were in the amelanchier eating the flower
buds, oh well, I hoped they enjoyed them.
Lots of butterflies on our
walk this morning, tortoiseshells feeding on the blackthorn flowers and
basking warming themselves up in the sun, peacocks and plenty of yellow
brimstone butterflies on the wing.
Passed an arable field being worked
with kites following the machinery looking for something to pick up and
eat.
Later a bit of work in the garden watched by a robin along with this good looking frog in the undergrowth.
