A good couple of days ...

So excited to retrieve my camera trap after sighting it for the first time - had seen lots of spraint and wondered whether it could be Otter and here was the proof

And then on a quick drive this afternoon bumped into this Short-eared Owl just sat next to the road ..

Cute video alert

I put this digisoped video of a Long-tailed Tit building a nest at Messingham on twitter and it has had an amazing 17,400 viewings and 777 likes but the best thing is it has absolutely trounced Neil and Wayne's Diadem Sandiper Plover also on twitter😂
