First full moon of 2026. Rising steadily in a clear sky.
Still low in the sky so atmospherics make it not quite sharp.
It is not often that I see a rook on my feeders.
I think this is the first time I've seen a stock dove in my garden, though this one thinks it's an ostrich,
It's a full-on young starling day. Some squawk, some flutter around and some just sit tight, quietly waiting to be fed. They are all good to watch.
I wonder how the Labour party will be able to function without the Brain of Britain, Karl Turner. Maybe the people of East Hull will get the chance to elect someone eloquent enough to make his point in a more respectful manner. Let's hope so.
Crow in my cherry tree, the cherry blossom is almost out.
The catkins on my twisted hazel are finally beginning to open. They must like the warm weather.
