IN MUSWELLBROOK AND CURLEW CIRCLES THINGS ARE CROOK

Ants are coming out of the computer ,blood pressure going up and down like a yoyo, recovering  from a severe reaction to an antibiotic which  made me look like a leper,now  two Curlews  have hatched , days  late . Last night there was much screeching  outside , so feeling as if I was whirling through space  in Dr Who's telephone box, stumbled out to investigate : could not see any cause for the disturbance  , no murderous Barking  Owl, cat  or   dog.  Is  there a  doctor in  the  house ?  Will  go to bed with a club  and  torch  so  that I can leap up  at any hour of the night   to  clobber anything   which  threatens the  chicks . Apart from losing the two earlier  chicks , several people  have reported  that  young  Curlews  hatched  on  their  selections   have  disappeared  or  died , it being a bad year for them .
