A red kite soaring over the field across the road. Two longtailed tits are a pair who visit the fat balls regularly during the day. A daft blue tit excavating somewhere in neighbour's fascia/soffit extracting glass fibre insulation, presumably to make room for a nest. We got quite worried yesterday when we found a place beneath a hedge littered with bits of insulation, having no idea where it came from. P went round the house on his ladders looking for holes and debris but came up with zilch. This morning we saw the culprit. She enters a hole in next door's roofline hidden from sight and exits with a beakfull of insulation then sits in the hedge and drops it to the ground ready for us to clear up of course.
