With a fog bound start this morning lasting until 0845 hrs and dark at 1900 hrs this evening a daily bloggers life is not an easy one. The blue clear skies were void of birds over Foxhill at lunch time so just to fill in, a few more pics from the Oxenhope watch point around Sept, Oct, 1999.

All is not lost yet, looking through my records for 4/10/2001 teens of thousands of Meadow Pipits over the area.
My notes from work read " I,ve never experienced as many birds over in my life". Lets hope it happens again.

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.
