Ospreys in the Village

At this time of the year we occasionally get ospreys calling in on their migration. I saw one on Tuesday night being mobbed by a raven. I was hoping to get a photo but had no luck. Two have been spotted over the last couple of days but I just missed seeing one tonight. A picture below not mine but maybe I can get one in the next few days if it stays for a while. I did see a kingfisher and a heron ( a slightly fuzzy picture below).

Thoroughly enjoyed being back at Wick Court on Wednesday and we were treated to plenty of migrating swallows and house martins overhead.

I made my debut for the Gloucestershire Over 70s yesterday- I am their youth policy! My highlight was diving to haul back the ball right at the boundary edge- so I did look like the youth policy!
