...Busy
recently putting cameras in bird boxes (you might remember that I have placed
them live online previously) - getting ready just in case we get lucky with
nesting in the Spring - straight away can see that once again (did you follow
this lovely saga last year!!) an enterprising blue tit is seeking refuge
for nighttime from the winds
and weather, in one or our boxes ! - every night at dusk, it flies in and
settles down in this box, fluffs up its feathers to conserve heat, and sleeps
until the following dawn - lovely to see (every few minutes it seems to fluff up
its feathers again!) -
CLICK ON THE BLUE TIT if you
would like to see it (Just video, no sound at present)
(If you would like to see a video with sound at 4.20 one afternoon last week
when the blue tit has just arrived
CLICK HERE).
I have put
the bird feeder camera back online - you likely have lots of birds of your own -
but if you want to watch birds at a feeder, in a tree in our garden,

Met Office - Longer Range Forecast, for the entire UK ©Met Office.:
........... Monday 19 Apr - Wednesday 28 Apr
Cloudy and breezy across Northern Ireland and Scotland with outbreaks of rain
through Monday, later spreading briefly to Wales, the South West and Northern
England. Further southeast it will likely remain drier and brighter with a cold
night. Outbreaks of rain in the north and west will then likely ease as high
pressure becomes more widely established again. This will bring plenty of dry
and bright weather with sunny spells and daytime temperatures around average,
but cold by night with the risk of overnight frosts and the chance of fog
patches. There is the potential for rain and strong winds to occur at times
towards the northwest of the UK with the possibility of these unsettled
conditions briefly spreading southeast.
Wednesday 28 Apr - Wednesday 12 May
Confidence remains low during this period, however, mixed and slowly evolving
weather patterns, typical of spring, are most likely through the end of April
and into May. Fine and dry weather is expected to be more prevalent on the
whole, with fair-weather cloud and plenty of sunny spells, although all areas
are likely to see some showers or longer spells of rain at times. Temperatures
are likely to be close to average for the time of year, with warmer spells
possible at times. ....................................
