Mark sent in this pic and comments:

You don’t see a dead mole for many years and then 3 come along all at once; well 3 in a fortnight, the latest this morning, and all at Lower Knole Farm. It would be interesting  to know if anyone else has found any dead moles recently, or if this is just happening locally.


SEVERNSIDE: per severnsidebirds
Northwick Warth: a female Redstart along the bushes late afternoon.
