Today was a good day! After church we were all trated to lunch by the pastor and his wife!
Then it being a lovely sunny day, we went for our first family bike ride of the season. Only a short distance today, but just lovely. Quiet country roads and lovely sightings of spring birds. There was a farmyard where we saw a huge flock of starlings. Two crows were displaying over one of the grassy fields. Little longtaile tits were swooping along by the side of the road, next to a field of thatching reeds. They are such sweet little birds, they remind me of ping pong balls with tails. The following is a page from the RSPB page, just in case you don't know what they look like.

Also, if you Google 'Chilton Trinity', you can see images of where we went today. It is SO rural and yet, only a short drive from a major motorway and a very busy town! It's great here, we have it all!
