Sitting out late last night on the veranda in an elevated position it was nice to see one or possibly two Barn Owls working the margins of the hay field at the bottom of the garden; the second came around a couple of minutes after the first but it may have been the same bird. Also light entertainment above my head provided by two pipistrelle bats that had become fascinated by a CD disc I have hanging off the roof the reflective surface must have been playing hell with their radar as they appeared to be trying to get through the centre of the disc?. If you are wondering? the disc is supposed to be deterrent to try and stop my mud slinging friends on the west wall from spoiling my nice new wall (with limited success!)
