A better day weather wise, it started off pleasant, although damp until foot (and will be for some time I suspect!) All the Hawk Walk birds were got out for a bath and their compartments cleaned. Peter Dowle’s team of pruners arrived and started a major prune of the place, it is now looking very pruned in parts!! Tom, Keiran, Paul and Glen with Adam at the helm moved and raked and tidied up after the pruning team. I did notice that Sedge was helping manfully, or perhaps that should be dogfully, for about three 
minutes in digging up a root! Simon and Mike concreted the next bay in the rebuilt enclosures at the end of the Hawk Walk, so there are two to go, that should get done before the end of this week, particularly as the weather is supposed to improve, and surprise surprise no dog paw prints!
The course guys flew birds, practiced picking up and putting on perches, moved all the birds back under when it started to rain and then did jess making, and we talked about housing while they finished 
off the jesses and I fed the male Lugger on the fist, multitasking, my favourite thing! The pictures are of the puppies helping, the baby owls two/three days old, and the prunings being burnt for today. I also had a huge row with my computer and lost, I don't have photoshop down fully and Word does not have some of the functions that Publisher has, but no printing firm uses or likes Publisher so its a bit of a bugger to get sizes right. However we got a lot done – hooray.
