Fairhaven Lord, Acle Strait New Road.

On the South side of the road half way to Stacey Arms in flash pools two WHITE STORK assumed from Thrigby Hall with LITTLE EGERET and GREY HERON. This was only a drive by so no real surprises on views. But all birds visible from the road. On the return journey 2 miles further to Acle a HOOBY flew South over the A47. At my daughters in Norwich, Old Catton several screaming SWIFT more than we have here in numbers and also much more vocal. A  high soaring COMMON BUZZARD as well as a SPARROWHAWK being mobbed by swift.

As for home Tuesday saw Harry bring in two young one of which found its way into next doors garden. This bird could only just fly but was tangled in blue cotton. So next door held its leg and I worked on it until it was free. Placed it in the shed because it was to hot. Gave it a pond to cool it down and chicken for food. On return in the evening I place the bird on the top of the roof and by morning it was back on its roof on the other side. Only to fly down with dad a calling incessantly.

He never complained about the stae of my shed so don't you.
