Had a delightful Thursday morning on the banks of the Severn doing a bird census for the Frampton estate. This meant I was allowed to go to areas closed off to the public which was good. I will be doing this once a month for the next two years. I am still trying negotiate access to another part of the Severn called the 100 acre which is testing my diplomatic skills! (argggghhhhh!)  Back to the bird count it was a stunning morning and had one great view of a Kingfisher. Lots of Meadow Pipits around and a couple of swallows going over.

I also spoke to the Stroud Head Teachers about what I could do on the Story Telling Front. I have already had a couple of bookings as a result. Circulating some leaflets later to some friends who work in different parts of the county.
