Has been quite in recent weeks chiffchaff numbers increasing, Peacock Butterfly's, Brimestone and Small Tortoiseshell's evrywhere round Trittiford and Scribbers Lane. Grey Wagtails at Priory Fields.
A bit more lively today although a sad start there was an injured coot at the Old Mill Pond last week limping and didn't appear to be able to fly he was sitting on the grass by the road so I managed to get him to hop through the railings to safety, but then today sadly he was dead in the road, presuming it was the same one, there was another coot on the grass that appeared to be limping but was the other foot :( very sad hate cars.
On a more pleasant note, Trittiford was thriving with birds, chiffchaffs everywhere and a Willow Warbler which is nice first one this year for Trittiford :) also Blackcap new in. Song Thrush near the bridge at Trittiford, Treecreepers and Nuthatches also present today.
Four Greenfinch's which is nice fingers crossed they will breed,the Mute Swan is on the island hidden presuming shes on eggs, also a coot still on nest, can't wait for all the babies lol
Great spotted Woodpecker at Trittiford and also one at The Dingles also a Kingfisher and another Kingfisher on Scribbers Lane.
