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.

A foggy Fly Flatts

Fog turning to mist by 0830 hrs

Brighter to the east

Plenty shoreline to the north

Too late for the waders now

Fog over the moor.

Again thick fog from first light turning to low mist by 0830 hrs leaving very little sky visibility.
The whole area was void of birds after walking the full circumference of the water with just 6 BH gulls, 4 Mallard, 12 Canadas, several Red Grouse and 2 Crows on the seed. No wonder all are birders are moving to the east coast.
