I went along the brook to see whether I could see Bluey but alas he wasn't to be seen. However, this little scruffy blue tit was pecking away at the buds on the trees and he just looked as though he could do with a good wash and brush up. He's probably busy building a nest somewhere and hasn't had time.
Thank you for all your good wishes for my retirement. I really must not keep retiring so I have decided not to do any more work - well paid work that is.
