    The motor racing (and cycling) won out so I didn't go birding. Thankfully the garden provided a number of birds of interest, so the birds came to me rather than the other way round for a change.

    I don't know whether to stay in and watch what is set up to be a cracking British Grand Prix this afternoon or go out birding

    Damn foxes making a variety of bizarre noises around 1 o'clock this morning and again around 4.30 meant I had a fitful night's sleep at best

    Screaming Swifts woke me from my slumber this morning - I don't mind that

    A beautiful Sunday morning and the missus wants to go shopping. That's up to her - I'm going birding!

    This morning it was pins and needles in my left arm that roused me from my slumber. It's quite disconcerting waking up with no feeling in your arm other than a slight tingle. I continued to show nature who is boss though by eventually going back to sleep, only to be woken before my alarm by a...

    I'm sure someone went through the desert on one of those, said it felt good to be out of the rain. Rain which, according to forecasts, is set to hit this area hard in the next few days. Just as I'd got used to the idea of summer sun too. Ah well! Oh, and it was Parakeets that woke me this...

    Other humans and traffic, that's what woke me up this morning. That's hardly nature's best shot is it? Why not try a singing Blackbird, a Grey Squirrel's alarm call or even a Woodpigeon asking who cooks for me? Oh, and hats off to Raffaele/Turaco for yesterday's song - top effort! :t:

    Oh, if only that was an option. I didn't exactly leap out of bed but the alarm clock must be obeyed if I want to keep my job. After all, if I don't win the bins I may need to buy some to satisfy my craving. No cats or birds tried to wake me up this morning, or if they did they didn't try hard...

    Ugh! Back to work this morning, and this time it was the alarm clock rather than a Wren that woke me up

    No Wren this morning. Instead he sent his minions to wake me up early this morning, namely my two cats shouting outside the bedroom door and a squadron of Rose-Ringed Parakeets shouting and squeaking on numerous fly-pasts. But once again I win as I managed to sleep through till around 9am.

    I woke up at 5.45 this morning but no singing Wren, just the sound of silence. I'm sure he was out there though, laughing to himself. I don't know if one of Britain's smallest birds is trying to train me or torture me. Either way, victory will be mine as I'm going home this afternoon, holiday...

    That Wren woke me up again at 5.30 this morning but I showed him who's boss by going back to sleep - ha, take that Wren!

    This is surely the earliest post I will ever make on this forum but a combination of being too warm (possibly partly due to a lot of sun yesterday), a couple of itchy insect bites on my ankle and what I think is a Wren singing really loudly and insistently just outside means I won't be sleeping...

    No artwork from me, just a boring old text entry. I don't even have an interesting fact to share. But yesterday I saw my first Buzzard and heard my first Cuckoo
