1 March - light rain through the night until mid-day, brighter pm, 14C, light -mod, sometimes gusty SW

A Sparrowhawk dashed through the garden at lunchtime.

A quick visit to the local lake after lunch was fairly quite, probably due to the gusty wind.  The adult pair of Mute Swans were present, presumably the ones that nested last year.  Little Grebes were displaying, 3 Tufted Duck, one female and 2 males, maybe they will breed again here.

A Goldfinch and a single Siskin flew over calling heading to Alders.  A Raven was heard calling as it flew northward. 

An abundance of fungi, I believe Common Puffball, was found along the edge of the path.
