Spring is in the Air

And how do I know? Because for the past three days a song thrush has decided that it will start its routine of singing its little heart out in the tree outisde our bedroom window. Trouble is, it starts at 4:30 am each day. So the dawn chorus is starting to tune up for the season. Soon the thrush will be followed by other birds and their counter-melodies.

I don’t really mind being woken up by birdsong – even if it is before dawn. At least it makes a change from Martin’s snoring.
