And the Nightingale sang.

Friday afternoon and Jimmy is off work, so it's off to Fishers Green in the Lea Valley in the hope of hearing the beautiful song of the Nightingale.
We walk to the usual spot & sit on the seat & just listen,but nothing happening at present, so we walk on down the path & walking up towards us is Marco minus the bike, he tells us that he had just heard one down the track,so after exchanging a few words we head off there.
As we walk we find he has got it spot on as  we hear the lovely song burst out & then it's spotted in the bushes to give us a really good view, of course as the cameras come out it's off, but it's another year tick & as we walk around we hear at least 5 more in song.
Only a short visit & we don't get any more year ticks but the aim was to hear the Nightingale so well worth the trip
