My goodness a real hot one today! We managed to get in a delightful early morning cycle ride to Berkeley.  The River looked wonderful in the sunshine.

A Great White Egret flew over our house this evening, these birds have followed the more common  Little Egret and GWEs are now breeding in many parts of the South West. We have also been serenaded by nearby Oystercatchers  – they have chicks on an island on Court Lake here in Frampton.
