Soil Hill 9:00am - 10am (ish).
Sue was making Marmalade this morning, a Christmas present for a friend - lucky friend the Marmalade is yummy.
Quite bright outside so I took the opportunity to drive up to Soil Hill.
I put some birdseed down ready for the arrival of some winter specials - nothing special here this morning though!
Thick fog here , with visibility of about 30yds made the outing a near waste of time.
Just a Meadow Pipit called from the top (not seen) a few Carrion Crow and 8 Redwing spotted by DJB as I chatted with him on Taylor Lane on my way home.
A trip to Halifax and The Range Car Park bushes and small trees are full of berries and seeds - bodes well for later on.
Local Fields 15:15 - 16:00
A late afternoon stroll along the local fields - its getting dark soon now before 4pm.
A very cold wind was strengthening during the outing.
Birds:-
Little Owl.
3 Wren.
6 Fieldfare.
Kestrel.
Groups of Gulls in 10'sand 12's > W throughout.
Large Jackdaw flock near Matthews Farm.
A Green Woodpecker flew past in the gathering gloom.
