Spring has sprung

Carmarthenshire has the wonderful advantage of a lot of wildlife, much of it seemingly on our land. Over the last week or so we have seen six female red deer (who seem to have moved in), hedgehog activity, noctule bats, shrews and voles all over the field, bumble bees, toads, frogs and newts are set up nicely in the pond,  celandines and wood anenomes bursting into flower, an enormous array of birds including: linnet, pied fly catchers, house martins, gold finches, red kite, buzzard, willow tits, bullfinches, wild duck, dipper, herons, Canadian geese, chiff chaff, nut hatches, barn owls, tawny owls, pied wagtails, grey wagtails, song thrush, robin, blue tit, great tit, long tailed tit etc!
