A Wren hopped around in a bush beside the Vista ...

... and a Chiffchaff sang a few phrases.

A Great Tit ate a pine nut she took from my hand.

Starlings milled around in the grass by the Diana memorial fountain. There is an ants' nest here, providing a tasty snack.

The male Little Owl appeared in the morning in a chestnut tree a short way east of the nest tree, where he has been seen before.

The female Peregrine was on the barracks. She raised a lethal foot to scratch herself.

A Black-Headed Gull from Poland stood on the gravel bank. Its yellow ring has the code TNX7. We have two regular Polish visitors, T4UN and T8YT, but I haven't seen this one before.

A Buff-Tailed Bumblebee was kept busy by the multiple florets of a patch of Sedum by the Dell.
