Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

About 30 starlings landed in the garden tonight. Just beautiful.

Grasshopper Warbler on tonight's run. Managed to get within about a metre of it (I don't think distancing applies with birds?) and got a decent view for once. Plus pied and grey wags, a rare (for here) couple of starling, ducks, geese and all the usual.

Great to SEE a Gropper! It's years (and years!) since I saw one. Raining today on my run for first time this month. Birds singing loudly along trails including Cettis! Another "hard to see" bird.

The new "running arrivals" (since Covid lock-down) were nowhere to be seen today!!! That's what rain can do!

Severe warbler envy

I’m really missing being able to go to the Strid Woods with lockdown

I saw a large bunch of pied wagtail in the town car park the other night. A good number of them roost in a nearby tree in winter, but at this time of the year I would have imagined them all in separate near sights?

Nest sites, even! Could be, DT, I always assume small birds breed in the year after they hatch as they tend to be short lived, but really don't know. Potentially could be a family from this year, but none had the scruffy teenage look most fledglings have.
