Thursday 20th August

Visiting Ditton Quarry for 30 minutes at lunchtime I caught sight of a male Bullfinch. A party of young Chiffchaffs chased both flies and themselves around a wild rose. They looked absolutely pristine and responded to pishing, cocking their heads curiously.

Four House Martins battled the wind as I cycled home, no juv Bullfinch today, but a Jay picking up the first of the fallen, undeveloped acorns.

Adam ,
On first read , I thought you had been 'pishing in the wind , whilst riding your bike' .
Thought at the time that could be an arrestable offence .
Then realised I had misread your post .

Thanks Greenie! I only usually 'pish' in the bushes these days!
