NOTE !!
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.

Fly Flatts a.m.
Several Commons in with the Herrings
A cracking morning weather wise at Fly Flatts with wall to wall blue sky and sunshine on a light NW>4 though birding was quiet with gulls keeping the show going.
Around 46 Herrings went through along with 16 Commons all
>NE but several at distance over the moor then crossing the water at the north end to disappear over the Nab.
31 Mallard were on the water along with 2 Canada geese whilst around 30 Golden Plover flew low from the Flat moor towards Nolstar but not to be re located on the way home.
Not much bird wise but a good morning to be out even at 0 degrees.
