Ring Ouzel and other local stuff

Eventually caught up with the Ring Ouzel at Fowlmere, and took a dodgy photo from miles away…

Also the first Orange tips of the year, firstly at Chrishall, then in the garden. Also in the garden, a Blackcap has been singing for a couple of days, Starlings are nesting in the roof, a Robin is nesting somewhere (collecting cat’s hairs for nesting material), Blackbirds are in the church-side bramble, and Great Tits are investigating the usual hole in the apple tree.
