Albino Squirrel

Ryarsh Church: Something white sat at the edge of the wood. Unsure as to what it could be, I kept an eye on it and eventually its movement gave it away. Lovely to see a grey squirrel looking so beautiful and graceful. It was being chase around an ancient oak by a normal coloured individual and the two of them made for quite a sight on the leafless tree.

Murmuration

I am frequently observing an unusual murmuration in the early evening. The number of birds is not great, somewhere between sixty and one hundred. It starts with a smaller group but new arrivals quickly join in. The flight patterns simulate what larger groups attain with sudden changes of direction and altitude, BUT, these birds are not starlings: they are JACKDAWS.
They display like this over the field where are have been getting a last minute feed, they do not roost here but in local woods.
