My blog is 10 years old today.
Time flies when you are enjoying yourself and it only seems like nine years and eleven months since I started it!
Thanks for looking in 😁.
After lunch today I had a look up the local fields and this afternoon, following a WhatsApp message, I decided to go a Gulling down Lightcliffe.
Bradshaw Fields:
Bits of light drizzle and very windy here.
Birds:
Woodpigeon, Kestrel, Chaffinch, 2 Greenfinch.
2 Grey Partridge flushed early on silent wings.
A few small Gulls about.
Pheasant.
1 Fieldfare.
A pretty Dove in a barn - not sure if I've seen Dove here before.
Plenty of muck spread fields - but no takers today.
(Raggalds Flood is frozen over and nearly gone).
Coach Road:
Dull but quite calm and sheltered.
Good to chat with M St. who stopped in his car.
I scored a "double bogey" on the fairway I'm afraid - its them Gulls it is.
Birds:
2 Mistle Thrush, 2 Song Thrush, 3 Blackbird.
2 Wren, 5 Woodpigeon, 6 Goldfinch.
8 Long Tailed Tit, A few Starling and House Sparrow.
C10 Gulls all airborne - no migrant from Reykjavik seen on the deck.
A Wagtail was seen - but that was on a happy dog!
Riddle:
A farmer walking his sheep to market was asked how many sheep he had.
The farmer replied:-
"When they are walking in a line there are two sheep in front of a sheep,
two sheep behind a sheep and and one in the middle"
How many sheep does the farmer have?
Answer lower down.

Coach Road:
Riddle Answer:-
