Recent events haven't been kept up to date, but the first swallows arrived back at the neighbouring farm on Sunday 30th March, and were hotly pursued by the first House Martin of the year, yesterday. Spring is building nicely into summer, with our recent ringing in the garden showing the local Blackbirds, Dunnocks and Long-tailed Tits are there or thereabouts, with Blue and Great Tit not far behind. All looking rather pleasant, really...
