A bright start to the day with interesting cloud formation and red sky soon to be taken over by cloud and
snow showers until midday when the temperature started to rise allowing a thaw to start which continued on until after dark.
Very quiet skies although the gulls that have been absent for a few days were more in evidence today.
A quick dash up Soil Hill at 1500hrs proved fruitless with no sign of Snow Bunts although to be fair I did only get chance to search the SE area including the lumps and bumps and had to leave the northern end due to rapidly fading light. The pair of Pheasants were present along with 3 Skylark.
