A few wildlife highlights to report:
Pied flycatcher in the garden over the last few days. The male looks particularly splendid. I announced "piecatcher" at one point to Mrs Noel - followed by a short conversation about what that would look like.
We were on holiday in Greece over easter and saw a few tortoises - all alive, crossing the road. Both Hermann's and marginated (I think).
Sentinel Swallow still sadly solitary
Visibility good except in Hill Fog
In his lifetime he suffered from unreality, as do so many Englishmen.
