Migrant birds - NOT amateur radio


As we move into British Summer Time (BST) I look forward to the arrival of migrant birds from Africa. Sand Martins are already in Devon. 
Chiffchaff
I have yet to hear a chiffchaff. Some chiffchaffs winter here and some migrate.  

Swallows are usually seen here in early April, but there are far fewer of these birds these days. Swifts are still common locally, but these are normally seen mid May.

Rape
Although many don't like the smell, when the rape comes out fields are carpeted in yellow and spring is truly here along with the blossom on trees and bushes.

Springtime - NOT amateur radio

All the seasons have their own beauty, but spring is my favourite. Everything  has a promise with new growth, new flowers etc.. 

The flowers and new growth were seen on walks recently.

English springtime - NOT amateur radio

The bell ringing grandson has a couple of YouTube channels. One is called Ringer Luke (check it out). On one, he added this video yesterday.
