Queensbury in the snow

          Im sure this snow is heavier than it used to be

                                       The roads under there somewhere
                                       Chapel St
                                  Chapel Lane, fog closing in
                                    Chapel Lane to New Park Rd
                                 Foxhill estate, Waxwing country
                                 Up to the back gate
                                    New Park Rd
                              Entrance to Foxhill park
           Thats my garage clear, now to dig a track to Fly Flatts

Worst snow this winter by a long way with continuous snow throughout and a strong E>5-6 creating blizzard conditions and deep drifts. Looking sad on the birding scene this weekend with snow still coming down and more forecast tomorrow.
Nice to see Phil Cunningham at the garage today , ex BOG , now Flamborian. Strange that several locals cancelled repairs today due to the weather but we had Phils car in from Flamborough Head.
Phil had just seen the rare sighting of an Avocet on flooded fields near the lighthouse and another rare sighting a couple of weeks back of a Red Kite which are rarely seen over the headland, bit like Soil Hill, we dont see them there either.
Fingers crossed for the weekend but it will take a massive thaw to get access to most places.
