The urban and the rural, houses and fields, humans and wildlife, they all coexist in this small piece of land. I wonder how much longer?
Today was grey and unpleasant but I discovered a few things that cheered me up. The swans are still at the pond, I saw a grebe paddling among the ducks and, most of all, my friends the bats are still around. I haven't seen them for a long time but today I watched a number of them foraging the area around the pond. I don't know whether that is good or bad but I was pleased to see them anyway.
