A fairly fruitless morning by the banks of the Severn being buffeted by a cold wind and rain. We were doing the monthly bird survey and not surprisingly there were not many birds. One encouraging thing was we saw three Hares, this is the third successive month we have seen them in the land by the river. pity about the weather because the Hares were close enough for a decent photo. i had to leave early this morning because I had an appointment with a physio in an attempt to mend my broken body- the sun came out as I left!

Had a good day bird watching with the young people from Kelvin Grove Primary (Lewisham). We managed to spot 27 species. I am off Story Telling to them later tonight.

Another excellent win for the Mighty Hatters last night and we should of scored more. It has been a great season so far. Next week will be a big week with two tough league games and a cup match against the World Club Champions (not sure if that means anything!)
