Eleven plum and pear trees planted this morning. Proper job! Now on to the soft fruit...
Apparently, there were five buzzards circling in the distance towards Bredon, but I could only see one slightly separate from the others. My eyesight is not particularly good, and I need to ask my opticians to change my lens-by-post subscription to match my nine-month-old updated prescription, but perhaps I was looking in the wrong direction.
After lunch, I walked north down to the stream. Another buzzard was circling close above the ridge and furrow, fading south west as I approached. The stream is as low as I've seen it. The section fenced off for drinking (with scaffolding poles and barbed wire) is very clogged, and there's a lovely back-up of surface gunge; a possible job for someone on Friday morning, assuming it doesn't rain in the interim. A ladybird dozed in the sun, brilliant scarlet against the blackthorn.
