A cold, frosty,foggy morning with light overnight snow which soon cleared leaving a grey damp day with a SE>4 and heavy rain after dark.
A different day to yesterday on the bird scene with no singing today from the Robins, Blackbirds and Dunnocks which seemed to be keeping their heads down in the shelter of the conifers.
Starlings were everywhere today hanging around the garden feeders then swooping down to clear the food before moving on to the next supply. Strange how Starlings always group and feed in the poor weather yet not on the bright days, perhaps they stick to the fields when the weather is good.
Hopefully the weather will improve tomorrow and if my schedule goes well I will be able to get my mid week lunch time dash to the Dailies.
I meant to get over to Woodlesford tonight to but a copy of Nick Dawtreys Halifax bird report but things didnt go as planned so thats another job for the weekend.
