Had quite a good weekend for stuff this weekend, nothing out of the ordinary but still a pleasure.
Started yesterday morning when I let the dog into the back garden & came face to face with a male Sparrowhawk in one of our trees. Wasn't phased at all that there was a puppy running around underneath him!!
This morning noted my first Chiffchaff of the year locally. Then spent a good couple of hours in Strid Woods.Had Nutchatch, Treecreeper, Goosander, Blue, Great & Coal Tits, Chaffinch, a couple of GSW drumming noisily (echos really loudly down by the river at Barden!!), Curlew & Oystercatcher.
Some pics attached.
