Today started with clear skies and quite a hard frost. A lunchtime walk around Murdieston Park found a Coot with a brood of five young and two pairs of Mute Swans on nests. Most notable record however was a Chiffchaff singing from the cemetery - the first I have heard for over a week. I'm unsure whether the birds which seemed to everywhere a few weeks ago have moved on or are just keeping silent.
Back home, the netting over the pond seems to have stopped the local Magpies guzzling all the tadpoles - so far.
