Pathways

 The best species count of the year. With 32 in all. With three Torteshell and a single Peacock.

Early spring day after a long cold period the sun returns. It sounds all ok and feels somewhat better. The walk around was the best this year with the first returning blackcaps and again the Cetti's made itself known. A pair of Goldcrest which must be breeding near by. But an on odd event was a trio of jay's. Theses birds where oddly interacting. There was an obvious pair but a very vocal interloper. As for the pair they were chasing each other around the tree which was interposed by, I assume her giving a chip. A very odd call and I can say never heard it before. After 5 or 6 chips he would approach and she would fly of to another perch. If I place a vid on here you may be able to hear the chip.
