Been wracking my mind for bird songs and came up with this one for today by James Taylor and Carly Simon. For younger readers they were both quite big in the 70s. I wanted a song about a Bittern but I don’t think one has been written yet, if I was a singer-song writer I would do it but be grateful I’m not with my voice! I had a marvellous view of a Bittern on Friday flying quite close to me, I was ecstatic ! Also saw a Peregrine, Cranes, Stonechats, Goldcrests among many others. I also went to an interesting talk on Barn Owls last week and the news is encouraging as habitats have been restored. While on the bird theme my pals have been busy building us a bird hide for the children at Wick Court (The Farm for City Children) and it is great!

The story learning is in full flow as I have my busy spell of Gigs coming up next month. I  do enjoy the challenge of new story and you can be stretched doing 8 or 9 stories throughout a day in a school. I am also putting some ideas together for a new story of mine.

Football report in the next blog!
