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.

Queensbury Today

Thought this Hedgehog was ready for hibernating
behind the house today.

Closer inspection found it no longer with us with no
signs of injury.
Hedgehogs are a rare sight in Queensbury now.

A poor visible migration this morning in the strong SW>5 with just a scattering of Meadow Pipits >S
and a flock of 14 Goldfinch >W which could have been local birds as opposed to movers.
Thanks to HC for the text today reporting a Bar Tailed Godwit at Oxenhope on the shoreline (KM).
Hopefully the promised bad weather tomorrow will bring something down.
