Impatient for Spring to Arrive

Sixty-six Oystercatchers were piping away on a snowy inland field, with a further twenty-four Lapwings calling as they tumbled through through the air, indulging in their spectacular display flight. Over a neighbouring field, a Skylark poured forth its glorious song this morning, invisible in the blue sky above. Four Ravens passed over, heading for the hill country, cronking some encouragement to each other. We are not alone in wishing this Winter weather begone!
