The Breeding Season

As from now until the end of the breeding season birds of a sensitive nature will be omitted from this blog due to a small percentage of undesirables who take their pleasure from egg collecting, nest destroying and the killing and trapping of birds.
Reports of non breeding birds moving through the area will still be published. BS

Quiet skies over Queensbury

More Robins

Murky skies to the east from the top of the Dailies.

An icy cold start with temperatures down to zero in the garage and only rising to 2 deg in the day.
Blue clear skies still with the cold SE>4 keeping the birds at bay.
Fifteen minutes sky watch from the top of the Dailies midday found the sky to be near empty other than a single distant flock of Fieldfare heading >N up the Aire valley plus the usual corvids and Magpies.
A few Gt tits and Blue tits were in the Hawthorns but otherwise that was it.
Robins and Dunnocks are still having a singing contest in the garage car park conifers but the Greenfinches seemed to have moved on.
