God friend Marsali fromov at Mulindry sent me through her tally from her rain gauge...The rainfall for April here was 19mms or 0.76 inch, the
driest for many years but still damper than Kilchoman. See these folk that live up in the rain shadow of the hills....
Oops, I almost forgot our rainfall figures from up here at Shepherd's cottage to just below 0.5 of an inch. James's tally for the month came to a mere 12mm, so very similar to us at Shepherd's cottage.
Birds seen today by James included a Whitethroat, Gropper, Cuckoo, Whinchat, and male HH all from between office and Mill cottage.
"Just found this light blue egg shell on the track - Starling I think. Lots of Linnet on my walk just now, ie a flock of 9 and others along the road. Also Sedge Warbler, Willow Warblers, Mipits etc and a stunning male Stonechat with the female nearby."
