Smew (Mergus albellus)

Drizzle, drizzle, drizzle.........................................I should not criticise about the weather, because,  we are going to have some nice weather, yea. It is scruffy bag of tricks time.

Linnet (The 'Dump', Naas Lane, Lydney)

It won't take it anymore, spring is here, and soon be leaves all over the trees. But, now we can enjoy the Linnets.

Swallows (Harbour Road, Lydney)

I went to our place where the Swallows seems to come first, and, there it was, lovely birds. It normally lands here before thinking of going somewhere else to have their chicks.

Goldfinch at the feeder.

House Sparrow (Harbour Road, Lydney)

I was told by the weather person, that we were going into a day with sunshine, so what did I do, put on swimming trunks and head out toward it.  In fact, we were covered with clouds. You can't trust the weather person.............
