If you go down to the woods today expect April showers and flowers.

The brown carpet of winter has been completely replaced by vivid green, speckled with primroses and wood anemones.

The first blossom of Spring has arrived quickly followed by the first butterflies and bees, trying their hardest to dodge the raindrops.

Short compilation video on my blog of over 5 hours of trail camera footage, taken using 4 trail cameras over 6 nights, monitoring a number of entrance holes in two locations.

‘Cuck-oo – cuck-oo’.

From up in the trees above the badger sett I could hear the first cuckoo of the year calling.

It was difficult to work out whereabouts and in which tree this male cuckoo (only the male makes the ‘cuckoo’) was calling from.
