Little Gulls and first Insects

   
Bees in my garden on Sunday and birds from Monikie on 29/3/2024.

A few early Clarke's Mining Bees, a Tree Bumblebee, Buff-tailed Bumblebee, and an unidentified bee in my garden. The frog spawn is showing signs of growing tadpoles, currently small comma shapes, and my bird feeders are being emptied daily.

A report from today, (1/4/2024) of 220+ Little Gulls at Monikie is surely a record, approximately 39 were there on March 29th when the video and photos below were taken, they were almost dead centre of the Island Pond.
