Birds and the bike have dominated this week. On Thursday I did the monthly bird survey out by the Severn. For a pleasant change it was a lovely November morning. My highlight was a pair of Stonechats by the reed bed. Clare and I also had to do two map squares for the BTO November survey, so we had to do this on different days and involved quite a bit of cycling as well! Two contrasting areas and very different results. Plenty of winter migrants on the first day but today in beautiful woodland and sunshine we didn’t see that much.

We managed to see the wonderful Show of Hands give a superb musical show earlier in the week. Brilliant!

Busy week ahead on the Story Telling front.
