Taming of the Shrew

21st March 2018

Quiet day today, the most exciting thing I did was taking my wellies off. Visited 3 local N.Warks sites found Tree Sparrow in two of them which was encouraging. Still a few Fieldfare. Focussed on Owls for some reason, didn't find any of course but did find an owl pellet. At least I think it was from an Owl. Diet made up of Small rodents anyway. Also found in in tact Common Shrew which must have fallen victim to the harsh weather or the floods which followed. ( I have since learnt that the Common Shrew is actually not a rodent at all )
