Friday 28th December
Weather brightened up after a dull start, been out over the fields three times today, been trying to get closer to the flocks of birds that are around at the moment, but can assure you that it isn't easy.
Have seen today though, couple bullfinches, red kite flying overhead, large flock chaffinch, pretty sure buntings, linnetts and others are amongst them.
Surprised that I have not seen any Redwings or Fieldfare on my walks though, especially as there were quite a few around a couple of weeks ago.
There were masses of all sorts of berries around in November but these have mostly disappeared now.
Nothing about on the Dead Man's Allotment, a stonechat dropped in a couple of weeks ago but only stayed for a day.
The Dead man's pool is also very very quiet, usually see something on there but seen nothing now for a couple of weeks.
Haven't been down to Stone Pool for a couple of weeks so will try and pop down over the next few days.
Captain's Pool has been very quiet the past few days, just gulls and mallards, hoping something different will drop in soon though.
No sighting of a kingfisher or heron for a couple of weeks.
Over the fields there is lots of evidence that the badgers are very active.
