@LunarSea I have been to the medical centre this morning and there are two trees just behind the medical centre; one conifer and one deciduous. I don't know if that is where the wagtails roost.

What's your weather like 2026
Raining quite heavily now but it should fizzle out. Wednesday might be dry so that’s something.
