High winds and driving snow today served as a reminder that winter isn't quite over yet. However a quick check of the pond revealed two clumps of frogspawn which must have been produced within the past 48 hours. Yesterday, 2 Blue Tits were showing some interest in the box on the East-facing gable, and a male Blackbird had a bath in the pond. Today, a walk along the river revealed plenty of Mallard, a solitary Grey heron (on Rosshall pond) plus singing Goldcrest and Coal Tit.

"The grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never dried all at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls".
