Monday 21st November (More Autumn and Plenty of Mallards)


Mr. Kite looked out of his bedroom window into a grey sky. The air was still and the birds non-existent. In the gloom Mr. Kite went on a bird watching trip along the river to Atcham and Venus Pool. To cut a long story short there were plenty of mallards on the river and at V.P.

Today these colourful common ducks were feeding in the water and waddling around on grassy banks. One group of ducks played follow the leader as they walked in single file over the dried up bottom of V.P.

With some drizzle in the air Mr. Kite returned home stopping at Monkmoor Lagoon. Now here again there were plenty of mallards going around the lagoon in a group. So that was Mr. Kites day looking at mallards. Sitting in the front room of The Residence Mr. Kite had a tipple of Tetley tea. Cheers.
