All quiet up here in the gods today with another spring like day until rain late p.m.
Interesting to see Jays on the move with 2 over the garage early a.m. >N and 3 in trees at the bottom end of the Grimston field, an unusual sighting and obviously movers.
3 Pied Wagtails were on the top pitch at lunch time but the gulls seem to have mostly moved on now.
Getting reports of a new family in the Roper Lane area with a very aggressive Bull Mastiff type dog which is causing problems at Oats Royd chasing geese and it recently killed a Jack Russell dog down there. I believe the authorities have been informed of the incident so hopefully the owner will be put down.
