She said if the devil birds were hanging round your house something grim would happen.
Something grim seems to happen to me daily, crows or no crows.
Had Gordon Denison in the garage today for his camper repairing so whilst I sorted that he walked on Swalesmoor and came back reporting a good passage of Swallows coming through Shibden valley >N.
These were his first Swallows of the year in the Calderdale area so he went away a happy man, motor mended and an annual tick to boot.
Well the holiday weekend weather has arrived with heavy rain most of the day up here at the back o the moon in Queensbury, hopefully it will improve although these heavy showers are usually good for bringing the waders down if they can find any mud. Fly Flatts is just limited to the northern ponds with no shoreline around the reservoir.
Soil Hill just has the NK pond with plenty mud around it now that the scrapes on the summit have been completely destroyed.
Has anyone local got shoreline around their reservoirs ?
Hope you all have a bird filled May Day weekend.
Watch this space to see if I do.
