The blackcap begins to sing in my fields: a most punctual bird in it’s return. * In the season of nidifcation the wildest birds are comparatively rare. Thus the ringdove breeds in my fields tho’ they are continually frequented: & the missel-thrush, tho’ most shy in the autumn & winter, builds in my garden close to a walk where people are passing all day long.
