Birds and a Concert

First Wigmore Hall concert of the year today.  We set off on the first tube of the morning to... try to see Scaup in Kensington Gardens... we didn't ... neither did we see the Tawny Owl... double dip!!

Hey ho.

But sunrise when we arrived after brekkie in Pret.. was glorious.

Some very obliging Herons today..

Some take a dog for a walk.. Pete walked with a Grey Heron..

Couple of Common Gulls were around..

Heard then saw this little beauty on the way out ....

The concert was excellent... first time I've seen/heard the Fortepiano.. which was played beautifully today by

Kristian Bezukidenhout

CPE Bach... Rondo in C minor Wq. 59

Mozart
Piano Sonata in Eflat K282
Adagio Menuetto l-ll Allegro

Rondo in D K485

Adagio in B minor K549

and finally

Piano Sonata in C K330
Allegro moderato.  Andante cantabile.  Allegretto

We left London and headed off for Bramfield in the hope of seeing a Hawfinch.. we dipped on that too... but did see two Red Kites which was rather nice..

A great day out.
