Happy New Year 2026
January 1, 2026
May I wish you all, a very Happy New Year for 2026; let us hope it brings us good health, happiness and prosperity.
So far, only the one 'bird call' so far this morning as I type this report; a sparrowhawk which has collided with a window; no doubt chasing its breakfast around the garden.
Thank you for all the messages of support which have flooded in both throughout Christmas and from midnight last night - it is heartwarming to see just how far around the globe that people think of us, despite their own very busy lives - I really do appreciate it, as do all the birds.
The photo accompanying this report is as many people will feel this morning; mallard ducks having a good stretch after a busy night!
