I had a lovely morning with young Esther we were bird watching out by the River. I misjudged the tide times so the tide was already up when we arrived which was a pity. However we saw a Wheatear stopping off on it’s Autumn Migration. We got very excited when we thought we saw an Osprey in the distance, we decided to get closer for a better view. We eventually identified it as a Buzzard although it was almost white in colour. We also saw some Avocets flying towards Slimbridge.

After much difficulty my final story for the Library Service I managed to get successfully transferred. Sometimes it has been an endurance test! Later this month I am aim to do some thinking on about how I adapt on the Story Telling front because it does appear unlikely that there will be much opportunity for pub/village hall type gigs and schools have enough on their plate at the moment! Just had a December gig with the Two Severn Bores cancelled. Wick Court where I have my regular Story Teller in Residence slot is currently dormant and unlikely to see children till next summer.  So watch this space for developments!

You can probably tell from yesterday’s blog I enjoyed playing cricket yesterday!
