Or it could be Jimmy Wren - it's impossible to tell.

Wren



We were standing at the kitchen sink when this Wren started singing from the washing-line post just outside.

It's too hot!

'There once was an ugly duckling...' Not really. Aren't they lovely?

We spent this morning searching for Yellow Wagtails on the Nene Washes. Probably not a very good idea. Not only did we fail to find any, but by the time we finished, temperatures were getting near the 30 degrees Celsius mark. Too hot for me, with this humidity!

The highlights, in the absence of any wagtails, were dragonflies. A few Hairies about, including a mating pair, lots of Four-spotted Chasers and an assortment of damselflies, with quite a few Blue-taileds.

With a bit of luck, we'll get some big thunderstorms to help clear the air.
