Hello everyone, sorry Ive not written on blog for a few weeks
due to illness so Ive not been able to get out, though I did see
Pink Footed Geese, Redwing and Fieldfare flyovers from my
garden, anyway I managed to get out yesterday and went local
up to Smelly Swalesmoor where the farmers had been muck
spreading, the bottom of Ringby Lane had Goldfinch and
House Sparrows and a 15 Wood Pigeon flyover, Redwing
and 3 Fieldfare also flew over, it was all Crows & Gulls until
near the top of the track where a couple of Dunnock and a
Blackbird appeared and then a cracking bonus up by the cow
field where 8 Brambling were perched on the fence but soon
flew off towards Queensbury, a few Starling were perched on
a tree and a few Meadow Pipits were flying about, at the end of
the cow field was another bonus with a Snipe that flew up as I
walked past, on the way back down the hill were 3 Stonechat
and 3 unid'd as couldn't really tell what they were with the sun
shining in my eyes, but an enjoyable morning all the same.
Garden had Goldfinch 20+, 2 Greenfinch, 2 Dunnock.
