A real varied day that started with Story Telling at Bromsberrow Primary School in the North of the county. I had a  lovely time and I had super responsive audience.

I followed up with some hacking back of a tall bush in the garden that even with a long pole was awkward . Arms were aching afterwards!

Tonight at Splatt Bridge I heard and then saw my first cuckoo of the year (picture of one below – not mine!) Also saw a Cetti’s Warbler you normally only hear them! Finally there was a lot of Redshank activity over at the scrapes (another picture that isn’t mine below!)

Cricket for me tomorrow against a strong Wales team!
