27.06.23 : A wet week in Cumbria
After a few weeks of great weather and long evening walks, the rain has come back and the light gone, so Ive only managed a few short walks out. The garden keeps on with the song birds slowly increasing in number after the nesting season, The Lesser spotted woodpecker is back, tree creepers and Goldfinches. The pond has been quiet ever since we lost two Herring gulls to what we assume is Avian flu everything seems to have stayed away, just the Grey Heron remains witht he odd visitor. The Sparrow Hawk has been around most days this week, taking anything it can find but of late its been having a lot of Reed Buntings.
The garden is buzzing with dragon flies however and theres even been an odd wagtail. Fingers crossed the weather improves and I can get out with the camera again soon.
