A Few Gulls!

Greetings, Folks!

Brian has sent in a couple of photos with the following note:-

Where do all the gulls suddenly arrive from when the farmer starts ploughing? We normally only see a handful in the field behind us but there were hundreds the other day as soon as the ploughing started they arrived.


Did you count them, Brian? I'm sure the County Recorder would like details of species and numbers!  ;-}

I wouldn't be at all surprised if these had come from the Gull Roost that is relatively close by at Albert Village.

Thank you, Brian, for these, which brought a smile to my face!


If any group members have any interesting wildlife information and/or photos to offer for the blog, I'd be delighted to receive them.

 

A quick note about Hedgehogs

It seems that Hedgehogs are emerging early this year. We have had sightings every night this week, with at least three on one one night and at least two a couple of nights later. You might like to consider putting food and water out for them if you think that you have Heedgehogs near you. We feed ours on Tesco Chicken Kitten dried food, which is favoured by  some professionals.


Hoping that we will all be able to meet up again soon. In the meantime, take good care and stay safe.

Richard
