11th July - sunny intervals, steady SW, humid at times, max20C

A day of jobs, but I did see a flock of about 30 Starling around the village and then in an adjacent field this morning.

A couple of Frogs were in the allotment garden area, one full grown and a small one.

I check my remaining Swallow nest, it has 2 maybe 3 fairly large young, these probably will leave the nest in the next few days.

Rooks and Jackdaws are making the most of mown and cleared grass fields at the moment, being damp is also helping them find food compared to dry hard ground. We would expect in mid summer. This evening there was a mixed flock of about 500 on the fields to the east of the village.
