Not sure when I last had a Beatles song title for my blog! I was trying to think of songs about birds so I came up with this one. You may have guessed that birds feature in today’s blog.

I was watching one of my favourite birds this afternoon a wonderful Short Eared Owl. My first one this winter hopefully more soon! We also saw a pair of Cranes, a pair of Stonechats and heard a noisy Water Rail. A great afternoon!

The children I take Bird Watching at Wick Court often ask me what is my favourite bird it is a difficult question and varies almost daily! Every winter I go looking for the Short Eared Owl so it must be in my top ten! I have been out half a dozen times this winter and was rewarded today with great views.
