Thursday June 25th

We did an early walk to avoid the hottest part of the day, walking Canal, North and Permissive paths. Several dog walkers about and everyone observing social distancing. Met one keen bird watcher who said he had seen an Osprey. We saw an Egret in flight in the distance. Saw one cow sun bathing but the others were hiding, presumably worried about sunburn.

  1. I checked the cattle on the 25th and thank the wardens for letting me know wwhere they saw one of them. They were all just beyond the willow trees to the west of the gate, sitting quietly together.
    Whilst i did that Elizabeth did a butterfly transect.
    We met a man from Poland who asked whether there were Great White Egrets in the reserve because he thought he had seen one.If you wear a HIWWT tea shirt everyone assumes you are an expert in everything they want to know.

 The canal side path is becoming seriously eroded about half way between the two concrete bridges. I expect this is known as it is so obviou...
