Tuesday 11th March

The spring tide was so high that it nearly overflowed onto the cycle path, but at least this will clear some of the wood chippings! This was also a very wet morning for cycling. A large flock of Jackdaws was circling around the Jackdaw tree, as always they are in pairs, even in flight; a couple of dozen landing in the tree and surrounding bushes. They are very tame, taking little notice of me on a bicycle.

The white blob over in the oak looked a little unfamiliar, then it flew down to join its mate in one of the ivy covered trees - a Wood Pigeon not a Peregrine! I wondered what would have happened if one of the Peregrines had turned up and found a pigeon on its perch ...
