And how she blew !

A terrible morning after overnight gales which sounded as if the house was about to blow away. The strong wind, W>6-7 and heavy horizontal rain continued until just after midday when the sky brightened leaving a clear afternoon with rain returning by last light. Good to see it light until almost 1700 hrs today.
Bird life was poor in the conditions though several Common gulls were up in the afternoon making the best of the lull in the weather. 18 were in Foxhill park all crouched down facing the wind along with a single Pied Wagtail which was unusual in that area.
A dash to the top of the Dailie fields at lunch time found several Goldfinch and Chaffinch in the Hawthorns and around 8 Redwing down in the station.
A real shortage of Fieldfare around this area all winter.
