Under Rydon Hill

Welcome to this blog about my time away from the tedium of domestic management. Once called "Tits and Things", now sub-titled "Life in Quantoxia", there's plenty of bird ringing (90%), some odd bits of general birding, some local steam trains, some personal bits and occasional 'away days' in other parts of Britain. Rydon Hill overlooks the lower valley of the Doniford Stream, where most of these activities take place.

209 declared


April rainfall totalled 209 mm, 80mm of which fell in the last 48 hours. This is 3.17 times more than the local long term average for the month and the wettest on record.
Still raining but a respite promised (ha ha) tomorrow, so might be able to catch some of the Willow Warblers that are still coming through. No sign of Whitethroat, Lesser Whitethroat, Garden Warbler or Reed Warbler yet. No more Cuckoos since 12 April.

Doniford Stream in a bit of a rage!
