Two textbooks I have on the subject say that they often leave at dawn. I\u2019ve had blue tits or great tits nesting 15 years in the last 16 and have found they very rarely do as the book says. Mind you, I don\u2019t blame them not leaving because it is damn cold here and I\u2019ve actually put the heating on for an hour which is most unusual for me in May.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">\u201cI was hoping they would all have gone before my team Rainford, play at my local club Rainhill in a cup game later. I support Rainford because of the amateur philosophy ; Rainhill pay out a lot on pros. Rainford are just a bunch of mates who have done very well these last four years competing against semi professional teams but it is getting harder each year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">How lovely! Crossing everything they venture out before your cricket game. I once delayed my kids going to school to see some butterflies hatch from one of those kits you can buy. It was amazing but they took their time and we were very late.

class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>A rainy Saturday inspired county<\/strong> nightwatchmen. At Lord\u2019s, <strong>Derbyshire<\/strong>\u2019s Ben Aitchison followed up his five wickets with a maiden first-class hundred, stacked with charming drives. As he crossed the line, he got a huge hug from Wayne Madsen and smiled the widest of smiles. Madsen followed up with his first hundred at Lord\u2019s on a tiring day for <strong>Middlesex<\/strong>\u2019s bowlers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Also on overnight duties was Jamie Porter, whose first first-class 50 was the Sellotape <strong>Essex<\/strong> needed from the mess of 39 for four. Charlie Allison put on 96 with Porter, and collected 72 before nibbling at Josh Hull. Wiann Mulder (70) and Simon Harmer (33) then punished <strong>Leicestershire<\/strong> further and took the to within 52 runs of parity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Emilio Gay celebrated his England call-up with a duck at Beckenham, where <strong>Durham<\/strong> found themselves in surprise trouble on a pitch where <strong>Kent<\/strong> merrily gathered 523. David Bedingham was 72 not out at stumps but found little other support. Earlier, Matthew Potts had collected six for 92.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">A morning\u2019s play was enough for <strong>Surrey<\/strong> to rattle through the rest of <strong>Yorkshire<\/strong>\u2019s batting. Matt Fisher gathered four for 92, removing Friday\u2019s centurion Jonny Bairstow in the second over of the day. After Adam Lyth fell for 141, George Hill (34) and Dom Bess (42) hit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/sport\/yorkshire\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Yorkshire<\/a> towards 500.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Rain and Abell were the dominant themes at Taunton, where Tom Abell, Division One\u2019s second highest scorer, reached his third century of the season, accompanied by Craig Overton, who biffed his second. <strong>Somerset<\/strong> declared on 525 for eight, and there was just time for Overton to send <strong>Sussex<\/strong>\u2019s Tom Haines on his way, before the floodlights failed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Kyle Abbott bowled <strong>Nottinghamshire<\/strong>\u2019s Haseeb Hameed for a duck shortly before a lunchtime ceremony to celebrate the South African\u2019s 500th <strong>Hampshire<\/strong> wicket. Sonny Baker, running in with pace, then removed Ben Slater and hit the fingers of Freddie McCann, who subsequently retired hurt. After play, Baker said of his England call-up: \u201cIt is a dream come true. I feel like I\u2019ve beaten the bat a lot this season, which has been frustrating, but in terms of the outcomes I\u2019ve had, I\u2019d be lying if I wasn\u2019t pretty pleased.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>Glamorgan<\/strong> picked apart <strong>Warwickshire<\/strong>\u2019s batting on a damp day in Cardiff. Alex Davies and Dan Mousely carefully collected 30 apiece, but there were slim pickings elsewhere, to leave <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/sport\/warwickshireccc\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Warwickshire<\/a> 123 for six, 237 runs in the red.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">There were chaotic scenes at in a low-scoring shootout at Bristol, after <strong>Northants<\/strong> were skittled for 127, with five wickets for Matt Taylor. <strong>Gloucestershire<\/strong> then opened their second innings with two tailenders, one \u2013 Will Williams \u2013 returning to the crease shortly after being out to act as a runner for the other \u2013 Craig Miles \u2013 who was out soon afterwards.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">There was no play at
