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.

Snow, Sleet, Rain and Fog, Otherwise good conditions. Ogden
Lapwings looking miserable in the snow
With fog on the hills it was down to Ogden which was just below the cloud base but a mix of rain, sleet and snow.
As expected all was quiet with providing me with just a Grey Wagtail plus the usual small gulls and Mallards. All the feeders were empty so no passerines around that area.
No sign of Dipper or Kingfisher and didnt walk around the reservoir path which was deep in mud and Ollie had just had his £35 make over yesterday so I dare,nt take him back muddied up.
68 Lapwing and around 50 Starling were in their usual field down the Bonnet but no Goldies and unable to check the Queensbury fields for fog.
