18th A short trip to Peterborough I saw 6 red kites and 4 kestrels hunting at the side.
20th Back home to a day of aggression ; the robin is attacking the dunnock, the starlings are fighting each other, and 3 blackbirds are also fighting.
23rd My first walk by the river for a long time a blackbird is singing and a moorhen swims on the river itself, a white butterfly flits about in the distance, a magpie flies across from one bank to the other and at last the kingfisher flies on through. It was nice to see him after so long.
25th Rain all day but the plants and soil need it. The birds are still visiting; 2 blue tits, 2 great tits, 4 goldfinch, pigeon, magpies, 2 robins, and 4 house sparrows.
