The garden’s getting to be a dangerous place at the moment. On Friday I had one of my best birding moments when I witnessed a Peregrine take a Starling out of the air, and today I almost trod on a Grass Snake trying to swallow a large frog. Unfortunately for the snake, the disturbance allowed its dinner to escape. The frog didn’t croak, although it was bleeding from some tooth marks in its back, and the snake legged it.
