I had a look at the Raggalds Flood and also a look at the nearby football fields, late morning that, unfortunately, coincided with a heavy downpour.
After lunch I had a walk up to Soil Hill via the fields and bridleways.
Pretty cold and very windy on Soil Hill and boggy with it - nothing much here or along Ned Hill Track - as expected really.
Another typical December birding outing on a poor day.
Birds:-
Heron, Little Owl, Pr. Pheasant, Dunnock.
Herring Gull, Common Gull, Black Headed Gull.
19 Lapwing,
A Mistle Thrush morphed into a probable Green Woodpecker as it flew in undulating flight over Bradshaw Lane.
The bird was far off and the photo is pretty rubbish but I'm fairly sure it's a Green Pecker.
Helicopter was up checking the power lines west of Ned Hill Track.
Sue's sister Ruth is still without power at Soyland - since Friday.
