A few from last week

A beautiful roe deer


Great-spotted Woodpecker


Lesser Black-backed Gull on next doors garage, They visit regularly for food so they are not too far away


Pied Wagtail


Quite a few swifts on our evening walk, the numbers had certainly built up as they get ready to go. We had 3 return to us this year, usually nesting in the older houses in the next street as some still have original slates and wooden fascias. But this year they seemed to fly around all summer and have now gone....without breeding. We didn't see one single click on the wing this year. What a sad state of affairs as we witness the decline of this iconic bird.
