In Town the same thing has been happening to the ducklings there. It's a sad sight but nothing is wasted in the animal world.<br /><br />:(<br /><br />Regular RodRegular Rodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04412350204961563932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4725820531987570568.post-61398913176557973582012-04-26T23:16:07.162+01:002012-04-26T23:16:07.162+01:00A number of insectivorous birds have not been at a...A number of insectivorous birds have not been at all lucky. Mallard chicks have hatched, formed their bouyant flock behind Mum and then died every hour until she no longer has any charges. I watched a wretched carrion crow, annoyed by the fluff off off chick it took up from the margins, dip it in a puddle to dampen the down. I've been weed cutting today, the flow can rid the cut weed in seconds and make a weeks job in June a task of only a few hours when water is unlimited and the fly that has hatched around me has been superb; all BWO. http://www.derbyshiretimes.co.uk/news/local/drought-zone-rivers-flooded-1-4481184Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4725820531987570568.post-5368162743021432352012-04-26T02:18:07.335+01:002012-04-26T02:18:07.335+01:00Great post.

The Iron Blue Dun was a saviour for them today. <br /><br />No swifts round here as yet and I only saw one martin! The swifts wisely wait for the fly life to be booming before putting in their screaming appearances. Summer is really with us when the swifts are here.<br /><br />It won't be long now<br />;)<br /><br /><br />Regular RodRegular Rodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04412350204961563932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4725820531987570568.post-79920740363368908572012-04-25T21:40:42.396+01:002012-04-25T21:40:42.396+01:00Always nice when the swallows and swifts arrive.
