I don’t hear grasshoppers anymore
Recently I’ve been thinking that grasshoppers are a lot less common than they were in my youth. This might be true. At the end of term when my class were hunting bugs in a burn 1. Some of the pupils got distracted hunting grasshoppers. The reported lots of singing from a field.
Today at Ardinning I caught this wee fellow. my wife could hear more singing. I heard nothing. It is a strange feeling listening and hearing nothing when others report sound.
1. Nice poem here. The Biggies (my class are very keen bug hunters) ↩

walkmapMore jackdaws today using our #mynaturewatch #raspberrypi camera in the playground. We were trying to get some smaller birds. Also found the camera fired as feeder swung in the wind. 📷
Just put together and tested Naturewatch Daylight Camera using a raspberry pi 3 to take into school, very straightforward. Hope pupils can make housing and get some bird pictures.
📚 The Mermaid and Mrs. Hancock by Imogen Hermes Gowar. ★★★★ Great fun, lots of detail about 18th century life in London, shipping, trade and prostitution.
