At the moment, Tugley wood is filled with bird song. There are several singing nightingales competing with numerous black cap warblers and a fantastic garden warbler. His voice is truly amazing. catching a brief glimpse of any of these great songsters is the best that can be hoped for though! They are all loud but highly elusive. As well as the birds there are some roe deer and lots of wild flowers. The early purple orchids are just appearing and fluttering amongst them are a few wood-white butterflies and a truly beautiful green veined white. There are no signs of any turtle doves yet though. Have they not made it back through the killing fields of France I wonder......?
