It was friend and neighbour Peter's birthday last week, so with a fine evening forecast, he and Sue invited us round for drinks in the garden. It was a lovely, relaxing soiree, made even more memorable by flyovers by one each of Hobby and Swift. The Hobby was the latest I remember on the Heath and it - or another - is still around this morning!
As the sun set, night birds began to call: first of all a pair of Little Owls, then two Tawny Owls, which were joined by a screeching Barn Owl! Sadly none of these came close enough to be seen, but terrific to hear nonetheless!
