Garden visitors

Pretty quiet on the patch during the last week but the resident pairs of Oystercatchers and Common Terns.

Three lesser spotted woodpeckers.

Water levels on the reserve continue to drop.

Approximately 5 swifts recorded flying around.

It’s amazing the difference a few days can make when looking for plants.

Always expected the unexpected is a good frame of mind to be in.
