Saw a Sea Eagle get mobbed by a bunch of hooded crows above my garden. Given the size of the eagle they were very brave.

Buzzard circling overhead as I sit in the garden.
A pair of Oystercatchers at the edge of the 9th green. I had to Google to see what they were.
Hedgehog
Grey squirrels
Red kite
And some local pond life.
Hedgehog and red kite. We don't get many red kites round our way.
I've been hunting a grasshopper round the back garden for about a week and a half... This afternoon realised its actually the high-frequency cat deterrer gizmo, which my ears can somehow still pick up.
I had words with a female hornet that was buzzing about the shed and thinking of setting up home there, she can find somewhere else.
Don't roll with a pig in poo. You get covered in poo and the pig likes it.
There is a glimmer of hope this year that the decline in hedgehog numbers will be slowed down thanks to the Covid - 19 lockdown which brought about a decline in vehicles on the road and therefore more Hedgehogs made it across the the road and now there is hopes that it will be a record year for Hoglets
Something else to thank an unkown virus for

Large fox running across the main road between Loughborough and Quorn, seen on my bike ride this morning.
[Q. Why did the fox cross the road?
A. To catch the chicken that had crossed the road before it.]

Kayaked out to a seal colony nearby to escape the awful midges last night. 50 orcso seals bobbing around me close enough to touch. Loads of Oystercatchers and Arctic terns mobbing me as they nest on the island. Went for a swim in the loch afterwards and freaked out when something touched my leg. Thought it was a seal coming to drag me into its watery lair, turned out to be seaweed. Anyway. I shat myself and got out post haste.
