A second walk around the Dykebar area, this time exploring a little further south. The walk took me past a marshy area which added Reed Bunting (4), Grasshopper Warbler (2) and Sedge Warbler (1) to the many singing Willow Warblers, Chiffchaffs, Blackcaps and Whitethroats (but sadly no Lesser Whitethroats today). Other species added to the square list were Greylag Goose, Mallard, Rook, Grey Heron and Great Spotted Woodpecker. Returning home, my local river and park held Moorhen and leucistic Mallard, both with young.

"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".
