Fri 14th March

There were 12 Whooper Swan on Loch Gorm this morning, and our return from Bridgend, a Merlin swooped into a Gorse bush, after what I do not know. In the early afternoon, there were 2 Eagles out soaring on the thermals, while this evening on my way out to a meeting a Sparrowhawk flew from out of a field and almost struck the side of my pickup, just missing it! On my return later on there were several frogs out on the road, but no signs at all of any Owls, possibly because it was raining quite heavily at the time! IKB
