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.

Disappointing dinner time dash, Ogden
Inviting shoreline but no takers
With the strong WNW>5 and a bank of drizzle moving over, a rushed dinner followed by a dash to Ogden seemed like a good idea but turned out to be a bad one.
Hopes of big gulls and a wader or two were soon dashed on arrival with nothing but Black Headeds on the shoreline and Canadas and Mallard on the water.
No time to walk round for a closer inspection but a good scan from the prom told me what I wanted to know, Oh well, back to work.
No sign today of yesterdays Willow Warblers in the park so obviously moved straight through as expected.
