Bird Survey
And we have babies everywhere!
Glen has been out and about monitoring counting the birds in the Outback so we have a comprehensive record. The weather has been a bit on and off as we all know and in windy / rainy conditions its always a little harder, however its just great to be able to use his expertise to find out what we have here. Thank you as always Glen.
Some birds do fail to put their wing up for the count though. I spotted a Greylag Goose on one of the new ponds last week and a Tawney Owl popped out of the Barn Owl box when Colin was putting his cameras up last week. Do they not read the specs before they buy?
The Moorhens have had their babies too, so cute, four tiny balls of black fluff are floating around the pond!
I have also been listening to a Cuckoo for a few weeks now and I have seen a pair of Swallows, but we really should have more….
The polytunnel Robins, (who I almost threw away!) have been incubated, fed and fledged last weekend. Its been lovely watching them but I had to use the polytunnel for a couple of hours max so I did not disturb them!
Spring is marvellous and it’s a privilege to see and hear all these birds. I just want to ensure that here at Jordans Farm they have a haven, because every species needs help.
