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/Slaughter Gap.

                                           1 of 4 Common Sandpipers
                                       do you come here often.
                                                  female Pied Wagtail
                                                      reflections




                                                         female Wheatear
                                                    1 of several Kestrels

                                              Noisy Raven


Way too hot at Fly Flatts this a.m. with no breeze at all and wall to wall sunshine.
                                                          Midges and Ladybirds were a real nuisance with swarms of both throughout the watch which was cut short due to this and the weather.
                                                        At least 4 Common Sandpipers and 5 Redshank were present along with 1 Snipe, 1pr Wheatear plus the usuals.
                                                        With local Cuckoo reports coming in I walked down Slaughter Gap on the way home in hopes of Cuckoo and Ring Ouzel but neither materialized with just 4 Wheatear and 5 Golden Plover amongst a mass of Jackdaws and Lapwings.
