birdwatching!

The swifts are here!!

I was outside digging and actually thinking about them when I heard them screaming overhead. Apparently their numbers have drastically depleted in Britain in the past ten years. A local concern is doing a survey. But they are right on time.

The ospreys' first egg is due to hatch on Thursday 14 May. The momma is so off-the-charts old and has laid so off-the-charts many eggs that they might not hatch at all. But I've got my fingers crossed.

And there are goldfinches in our garden this year.
