Morecambe Bay is host to over 1/4 million birds each year, many of which will pass through Leighton Moss.
A few notes from my visit this morning, a nice bit of relaxed bird watching.
I did see the otters, no Osprey but a kind fellow birdwatcher let me see a distant Hobby through their scope ๐ฆ

Also bumped into some old NT colleagues which was lovely to see their friendly faces ๐

A little collection from my woodland wander this evening.
I love foraging in the undergrowth for the discarded evidence of life, seeking out the slight change in form or colour on the woodland floor that leads to a discovery of treasure.
Photos show some ash keys, a broken eggshell, some wild cherries, some nibbles hazelnuts, an empty snail shell and a couple of black feathers.

Testing, testing, 123....
Today I've been out checking out one of the stunning sites we'll be using for NaturesGems tours - the fairytale Gaitbarrows National Nature Reserve managed by Natural England.
Check out my cheesy video below ๐ฅ (sound on!)
Well my plans have gone a bit to pot this last week - I've been sucked into website building and tweaking and generally being a busy ๐
Looking forward to sharing the website with you next week.... there I've said it now so it must happen!
Meanwhile here is a little snippet of birdsong I recorded on Arnside Knott the other day for you and me both to chill out to, enjoy ๐ฆ
If you're feeling clever let me know how many different species of bird you think you can hear......
