Lovely day here today saw two bumble bees a pair of dunnocks having a flirt and a lovely sunset 

The Wrens are prospecting around the dead hedges, few other species looking in as well, saw a peacock butterfly the other day, think I must have disturbed it from its hibernation as I was tidying an old goat willow, having some very warm days in mid Northumberland

Think i will look into getting one of them mate. The merlin bird app does not seem to working that good lately as i dropped on a large flight of starlings recently and the noise from them was deafening and the app did not pic them up whether it was the app or my phone playing up i don't know..

I am getting genuinely down about it, it’s just never f***ing ending. Every time we have a small spell of less rain (not even no rain) it starts with a vengeance again everything ends up piss wet through. Just had enough of it now. Apparently it’s the wettest winter for 150 years…I don’t doubt it.

You lads don’t know you’re born, we just had two days of sun and it was like winning the lotto !……basically, it starts raining in October here, has two weeks off in June and then rains until the following October ! Lol
