Good old Jock, raising the standard as always

Todays walk for my binoculars is to Plymbridge to see the peregrines

Spotted a shag at looe the over day.

Not much bird-life today - a load of jackdaws & buzzards. The sound of pheasant, a woodpecker and apparently a tawny owl calling at mid-day in the sun(!).

But the daffodils are out - as are the primroses, snowdrops, vinca, crocus, celandine. Plus a tiny peziza coccinea hiding in a bank. My nose told me the ransomes are about to come out - cue interesting recipes in the next few weeks.

A pint & a bowl of chips on the way home. What more do you want? (Other than a quick nap in a short while ....)

Just perfick

I forgot ....
Comma, peacock & sulphur butterflies also.

Cann quarry today Peregrines M/F

It is still very early for butterflies must be very sheltered down there, was that by the river?

15 degrees here today. Positively balmy.

Yes, if you know the area, it was in the valley by Okeltor. I was surprised as well. There were also ladybirds & hover-flies.

Aslan is on the move!!!!

Having seen a peregrine about the viaduct the other day I was hoping it would stay but no siting since that once.

A pair of dippers on the river as I went to the post office.

Off down south for a week's course at a lovely spot, obviously named by a pilgrim, Sarisbury Green.

Had acupuncture earlier for the first time. Cannot reccommend it highly enough, really relaxing and took the pain away for several hours.

Another good thing was the physio is a big rug muncher East German shot putter and I got to lie face down while she stuck the needles in

Down looe yesterday spotted a few shags again. (The bird variety before jock jumps in.)

Went out for prato do dia yesterday, great scoff and saw a hobby, I got more excited than I do when I see golden eagles. Today I've been splitting wood and mending socks. Tomorrow I won't be mending socks.

Hobby is a great spot.

I went for a walk. Didn't see anything.
