Gorgeous aren't they!

We have a breeding pair that arrive here in March, they have been with us for about two weeks now.

When we lived in Devon, we found one on the grass verge one Springtime.

I know it's not yours, but that's a brilliant picture. Mine are like little dots as they are so timid I can never get a close up shot.

I've got one nesting in one of the run off drains of the fosse, nice. She is sitting on a pile of eggs, I lifted the lid (it's a small concrete square drain) as the dogs keep trying to look in and there she is, with about  5 tiny little eggs.  We were told the fosse was not running to this drain off point correctly and this proves it as it looks dry in there!  I will now have to wait to rectify.  I will try and get a pic later, don't want ot disturb her too much though.
