Not much time this afternoon so a quick check on Raggalds Flood.
The female Wigeon had moved on from this morning along with the Lapwings just leaving a few BHGs but a nice surprise to see the return of the Snipe with 4 barely visible in the reeds. Hopefully these will build up again as long as the water doesnt freeze over.
Well its that time of year again so I,ll wish all my blog watchers a very Merry Christmas
and hope you all enjoy the holiday. A big thank you to you all for your support and kind remarks and comments which makes me all the more enthusiastic to keep it going as well as the pleasure I get from doing it.
With Lynda being as she is and not being able to eat anything festive food wise we tend to keep Christmas low key and treat it as another Sunday so dont wonder whats going on if you hear of a mega from Fly Flatts on Christmas morning as Lynda says theres no present opening till afternoon, suits me. Have a good one.
