Soil Hill

With just an hour to spare today I gave Soil Hill a whirl – maybe a Snow Bunt. would make an appearance.
Although we still have lying snow outside our house, the weather was quite mild in the bright sunshine. But I was greeted by a strong , bitterly cold, WNW wind on T’Hill.  (plus lots of snow still on the deck).
No Snow Bunts alas and apart from Carrion Crow nowt else either.
A good few smaller birds were knocking about on the way up.
Blue, Great & Coal Tit, Robin, Blackbird, Dunnock & Wren.

Hopefully the white stuff will vanish tomorrow?


There is a wren here somewhere!



Blue Tits very active - spring is on the way?

  1. Brave man going up there today, the snows going to have to shift before we get any birds on it.

  2. Quite a bit of snow has shifted up there, but with the cold wind it soon freezes up again.
