Somehow I'm just about obeying the rules, though the recent arrival of Poms is putting me ever so slightly on edge. However, close to where I live there are many great sites, including Noar Hill that is only a 25-minute bike ride away and home to the scarce Duke of Burgundy butterfly.
The Badgers are also keeping me entertained most evenings, and several long walks recently have produced some yet to flower Sword-leaved Helleborines. On the 21st my first two Swifts of the year flew over the house, and Red Kites are seen daily from the living room window.
