The highly poisonous Laburnum
Sweet smelling Lilac
Fast climbing Clematis
Heavy flowering Apple Blossom
Just to remind you that its still spring time despite the weather, above are some of the flora that surrounds Foxhill park although if you,ve visited Fly Flatts lately you wont need reminding with the amazing array of wading birds to be found there.
The nasty wet and windy weather is ideal wader conditions and this evening with clear blue skies could mean that several will move on.
As long as water levels stay down theres a good chance throughout May that more birds will use it as a stop off point and hopefully my prediction of Little Stint will come off.
A much drier day today though still the strong W>4-5 with very little in the skies although time has,nt been on my side today so Ive had little chance to watch out.
Lunch time saw 5 LBB gulls over >W and the odd sighting of a single female Goosander heading >N up the Aire valley.
