Yet more Jersey Tigers in my garden today. Common Seal, seen from indoors upstairs, hauled out on the Crouch foreshore. Cattle Egrets on Blue House Farm now increased to five. Also, a Hedgehog was a most welcome visitor to my patio over the last two nights.

A lovely Barn Owl filmed through my upstairs double glazing this afternoon, in gorgeous light along the Crouch. The Ruddy Shelduck was still present on Blue House Farm as was another Barn Owl.
