Congratulations to the 17 sites who participated in yesterday's #westmidsalldayer - some impressive totals considering the less than conducive weather. Star bird of the day was undoubtedly the Glossy Ibis which graced both Branston and Ladywalk. Well done all 👏 West Midland Bird Club

Yesterday's Alldayer produced a total of 69 for Chasewater. I arrived at 3:30 am and left 27000 steps later at 9:00pm after 189 Sand Martins roosted. A good result from a team of 2 on a typical busy Chasewater bank holiday! Phil Andrews

This Glossy Ibis today at Ladywalk was a new Warwickshire bird for me . A morning visit with Dennis Woodward and good to see Phil Andrews on site

Undisclosed location. This is one of my favourite spring encounters. Vixen, dog and fox cubs!

Dug my moth trap out of the shed and lit it up last night. Temperatures dropped so not a big catch. 12 moths for 5 different species. But one was this stunning Lime Hawk-Moth. First for my garden.

A few people have commented about the lack of recent otter updates at Ladywalk NR This is due to the Trail camera and some associated equipment being stolen from the reserve. This also raises the problem that I’m reluctant to place another camera in the same spot.

A float by the Lily pads, a respectable Tench in the net.

Out and about early this morning in great company. A very enjoyable wander about.

Some pictures from an enjoyable weekend, Foxes, Flycatchers and Fishing.

Found another local Sett. Popped a camera on it to check it’s still active. Result!

This young vixen is one of three cubs I’ve been keeping a close eye on.
