Had a pretty miserable week with our house buyer dropping out for no apparent reason. However, we now have a new, improved buyer! albeit at a much reduced price.
Went out Sunday morning to clear my head, weather has gone really cold since I last ventured out! Definately need to dig out my gloves.
Stewkley Poultry farm was quite enjoyable. The highlights in an hour were:
34 Golden Plover in a field,
1 Male Stonechat,
1 Grey Wagtail,
5 Corn Buntings, and around 25 Yellowhammers,
1 Snipe.
Plus several typically winter flocks of Starlings, Corvids etc.
On returning to my car a horse and rider was trotting past. The horse freaked at my tripod. I've noticed horses are always terrified of my tripod, to the point that I usually either give them a wide berth, or dump the tripod in long grass until they have passed.. Anyone else have similar problems!? |
