Thankfully February is now behind us, Spring is just around the corner (Actually spring is another couple of months away really) and the patch is picking up a few birds.
Best bird over the last few weeks was a long-eared owl in the migrant bushes and the first one I've seen on the patch which hasn't been ringed.
Other, not so quality, patch birds have included the likes of lapwing, oystercatcher, shelduck etc etc. I won't go on but we have to hold on to what we've got.
Patch total now at a whopping 60 species, that is 50% and we're half way there...
Happy days
