A day of fog, rain and drizzle up here in the gods at Queensbury with fog from start to finish in the high north of the village, where I happen to live, although it was clear and wet down in the village centre.
With May nearly out and nothing to report from today I,ve put a few birds from June, July, August 2013 together giving you some inspiration and something to look out for with waders being the number one target.
Turnstone, Fly Flatts
juv Gt Crested Grebe, Ogden
juv Little Grebe, Oxenhope
Spotted Flycatcher, Oxenhope
Greenshank, Oxenhope
Possibly a bird of the past, Twite at Fly Flatts

No sightings of Roe Deer, Fox, Hare or Badger will be mentioned on this blog throughout the year and links will be removed from other blogs giving the whereabouts of these mammals due to the rising influx of poaching, long dogging and lamping by sick individuals.
