Friday 15th June

Yesterday, Michal had a Dotterel up at Ardnave, on the reserve at Gruinart, James heard a Quail and 3 Long tailed Tits were seen in the trees opposite the office at Bushmills. Down at Port Charlotte, on Loch Indaal, Carl had a GND in full summer plumage.Here at home this morning there were a couple of Collared Doves hanging around, and later on I saw a Great Tit was on the bird table along with some of its' youngsters, possibly the brood out of the nest box! This evening, outside the temperature has dropped, so I am proud announce that the jersey is back on, at least it is dry, and the forecasters were talking of rain today!!!
