Wednesday 6th July

Not a day for cutting grass, let alone bird watching, a rather dreich day to put it politely, could think of other words to describe it, probably not printable....
But on a positive note, before the rain front came in, I saw a Whitethroat down at the game crop... and then shortly afterwards a couple of Wheatear out on the fields. The hen Pheasant appeared out mid afternoon with her clutch of 6 + young chicks looking rather wet and bedraggled... The other set of 4 older Pheasant chicks were looking good this morning, they know where the feeders are and also skulk around in the cover in the game crop, that is what we planted the cover for, the birds......
