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

Soil Hill

Bright and sunny
Here comes the rain
The charred remains of the newly planted hillside at Ogden.

Soil Hill search, pm visit. Strong SSW>5 Bright then showers.

Up to 8 breeding Skylarks are on the hill with a few Meadow Pipits carrying nest material.

5 Linnet
8 Skylark
12 Goldfinch
sev Mipits
4 Mallard on a very murky NK pond
+ usual corvids, woodpigs etc
