Blackcap

An early start at work and a late finish. Before work I took a long walk above the meadows, hoping to find the red-backed shrike again. He kept out of sight, but a blackcap sat still long enough for me to photograph it instead.

Throughout the day, more thinking went into planning for the kids’ play area in the old pond. We are in the final stretch now, this weekend we lay out and fasten the sandpit liner and backfill the rest of the soil. Nadine was out with her friends, so I started Spider-Noir. Not sold on it yet, but I will keep watching.
