Just a quick reminder to any gardeners thinking of pruning hedges or similar, that its best put it off for a few months if possible.
I went out today to plant a new tree and as I was coming up by the hedge I bumped it a bit, next I got a flap of wings and a blackbird alarm call. Having had a quick look, sure enough there was a nest with 4 or 5 eggs in it. Obviously I left pronto and I'm sure there will have been no harm done.
I'll pop back and finish my tree planting a bit later - taking care not to make so much noise next time. :-)
