Lazy day but a bit frustrating.
Rain with sunny intervals and a brisk wind so not going triking in that.
Went outside several times but every time back indoors when the rain started again.
Sat watching the hoodie crow which has been living in and around a tree about 50 yards away for it seems years. From time go time it makes a dive when it sees something edible in the jungle below.
There used to be a pair of swans lived on the opposite shore of Loch Etive who had cygnets last year. Earlier this year I only saw one and now none. A dead swan was reported by the roadside in Connel village this week so probably both are now dead.
We had a pair in the bay at home but when one died the other became a real nuisance wandering around the street like a tourist tho’ drivers were more tolerant of it than touroid wanderers.
Eventually it took to going into the coop and that was the last straw. It was captured by a professional and taken away to a swan sanctuary where it seemed fit in ok.
