This afternoon we ventured out to see how many bird species Lucien could spot and to visit the local church to see progress on internal changes. This is Amandine, Lucien and Lis as we set out. Lucien saw 12 species which he noted on his pad. He preferred to take my binoculars rather than his own. Rain was threatened (it kept dry for our walk)) but the temperature was mild at about 8-9 dec C.
