Bird song

What a collection this morning.
First, outside the post office heard a curlew and looked up to see one flying overhead heading Gatehouse way. Then a drumming woodpecker in Brereton grounds followed by another at the top of the incline and a yaffling green chap. Finally more drummers in the woods across the Mill Green. Not to mention Mr Pheasant and his ladies promenading across the field.
Weather is again grey and wet - soggy doggies.

Curlew

Just opened the door to take delivery of bird food and heard the first curlew, bubble away as it flies across the Mill Scar. That's it then, it's spring.
