One Turtle Dove on wires close to the Fiskerton Fen Hide early afternoon today (Sat). Also :
Common Tern fishing in the River Witham with the Red Arrows performing more or less 'silently' at the Waddington Airshow in the distance as a dramatic backdrop.
I went on to the nearby "Tyrwhitt Arms" for refreshments, being joined in my feeding frenzy in the garden on the banks of the River Witham by -
Pied Wagtail family
ad. Yellow Wagtail
with Swallows and House Martins feeding young in their nests under the roadbridge there.......a very peaceful setting - for all of 10 minutes: the rustic/bucolic became the alcoholic with the (inevitable) arrival of a group of homo non-sapiens britannicus, lobster-pinkus, potbellicus, tattoodicus and shirtlus plus the females of the species (gigantica), accompanied by kiddiwinki plurali shriekii.
Exeunt - Pied Wagtails
Exit - Yellow Wagtail
Exit - Yours truly.
Regards,
Freddy
(Ah! well..... I did have 10 minutes).
