Swallow chicks

A self induced very long day in London today, but another very productive meeting. Almost worth seven hours on a train*.
Came home to some glorious light & thought you'd get a blip of the woods, but seeing the swallow parents swooping in & out made me think it was time for this year's swallow chicks blip.

* Sat on the (very empty) train about to read my book when a youngTory party parliamentary aide insisted on sitting next to me whilst braying into her phone. Eventually after several excruciating minutes she rang off. "Excuse me Miss" said I, "but in the spirit of full disclosure - have you heard all those apocryphal tales of the young aide who unknowingly sat down next to the very left wing journalist...."  
I enjoyed a very quiet ride North.
