Always nice to see Roe deer
Wish I could sprint back up this hill like a Roe deer
A bright day with very little breeze till mid pm when it clouded with some light rain for a time.
The Dailies at lunch time were rather quiet but something always turns up and today it was 2 Roe deer which sprinted along the hillside and over walls covering about 3 miles in 3 minutes.Wish I could do the same, Id be able to bird all Queensbury in my lunch hour.
Birdwise there was very little about other than the usual Grey Partridge, Greenfinch and a decent number of Magpies. A Green Woodpecker was calling but kept out of sight. I walked down a bit further today to the top of the old tunnel looking for the resident Bullfinch flock but came away empty handed and by the time Id scaled back up the hill in time to get back to work I thought I was going to need oxygen!
3 Grey Partridge
4 Greenfinch
1 Green Wdpecker, heard
14 Magpie
2 Chaffinch
2 Roe Deer
+ usual corvids and small gulls.
