Mon again


So possibly a short entry as it is already well past 11:00pm and I am looking forward to my bed. I thought I should come back and put something down as I have not existed in a vacuum over the last week or so since my last post. I have begun as I have mentioned before an upgrade of the site and if you are seeing this sometime in the future it may well have happened. Nothing much will change in the next few weeks but I do need to add in the pictures I have taken over the last few months.

I have started to spend more time on the Rushall Canal which runs not far from where I live and is easy to get to.

This time of year the cut is full of life and colour. I have been lucky enough to see Rudd, Perch Dace and Big Carp along with Pike in the water over the last week.

It does provide a good walk and it means I can get to Walsall Arboretum quite easily. Over the last week or so I have been able to see a range of birds including Common Tern ( who are currently breeding, 3 chicks, at RSPB Sandwell Valley) I got a couple of shots of a pair fishing along the canal on Saturday. This is the best of a bad lot.

I am however quite pleased with the pictures I took of Moorhen chicks. I assume they are second broods. Currently these are my favourites each showing small fluffy balls exploring the big wide world.

I t is definitely bed time now so good night.
