It's Summer - OFFICIAL

A single swallow over 'w'Anchor Street, Taffs Well early afternoon brought a great week nearly to a close. A singing chiffchaff at Coed-y-bedw during a break in habitat managemnet work was also of note.

I also nearly thought I heard a collard dove but was miserably disappointed to discover it was in fact a cuckoo. Next time perhaps.

Cliff, myself or Slap will pop up and sort out your PC when we get a chance. Promise. Not even 'we' (that's the Thatcher royal 'we' by the way) could live without your photographic genius for that long!

PS Don't forget, I'm having a BBQ/ party on Wednesday. Don't forget to bring a steak and a bottle. All welcome.
