| Alternative activities at the weekend!! |
|
So the weekend came and went with no patch visits but watching Bec as she took part in a 7 mile British Military Fitness course was not to be missed!! I think she enjoyed it too!
I finally managed a short visit Tuesday morning when there where 4 CHIFFCHAFFS singing. I did a longer walk yesterday as well as making an appearance at the moth traps. The highlights at the traps were Shoulder striped, Red Chestnut, Early tooth striped and Yellow Horned as well as over 100 Small Quakers.

On the bird front there were at least 30 FIELDFARE and 7 REDWINGS hanging around as well 7 singing CHIFFCHAFF, the 4 COOTS are still present and a male REED BUNTING sung from the lake. Four JAYS were also by the lake.
This morning was similar with the addition of a
RED LEGGED PARTRIDGE (75) calling from the freshly ploughed field.

Congrats to Bec on what looked to be a fun challenge! :) Pics are stunning as always; particularly love the reflection. Hope you're doing well.
Really like the photo of the reflections in the water, lovely shot
Nice to see some moths turning up Alan. I'm thinking of getting myself a trap soon.
Now that looks like fun! Great shots of the moths! I love the reflection in the second to last photo. That's fantastic, Alan!
Que divertido debe ser eso Alan!!

Your Bec is certainly very sporty Alan, it looked great fun.
Great moth shots and those Daffodils look so bright and cheerful.

Nice selection of photo's.
I always like seeing moth photo's as it is something I don't see a lot of. may you see many more this year.
Snap with the RLP for the 75th species Alan! I too think that reflection shot is pretty cool :-)
Because birds are nor everyting in live.....

geweldige foto's.
groetjes Herman,
Heard just two chiffchaffs last week and today they are everywhere! Also singing bullfinch today - pretty special. Still a thin handful of fieldfares over the farm, nice to have the overlap at this time of year. Hope all good with you Alan. Hope to catch up properly sometime soon.
That looks like a blast! Sometimes those activities take over the watching the garden patch. Excellent macros on the moths. Looks like spring has arrived:)
Love the beautiful reflection photo!
Really nice shots these - loved looking at them!
