"After what seems an eternity since I last went bird spotting, I managed to get myself out to Silverstream 2 afternoons in a row! I can't believe how many kingfishers are around but most of the time, they have been too far away on the powerlines to get decent photos of but it was a bonus today seeing one on a post in the driving range car park!
I have also spent some time watching the pesky blackbirds and waxeyes munch their way through the grapes on the grapevine."
