At lunch time I just couldn't resist the sunshine and jumped into my little red kayak to check out the river. Although I didn't see any new species it was incredibly quiet and I lay in the grass soaking up the warmth from the sun. I paddled up into the little bay where the beavers have made themselves a home.
Just as the day was ending, the sun had just set, I went outside to empty the compost and heard my first Red-winged Blackbird (21) of the year.
