Ringstone / Local Fields Again

We took Emma to Craggies Café this afternoon and afterwards I had a short stint at Ringstone.

It was very, very calm with no wind and the water like a looking glass.

The farmer was doing something very technical ,with a tractor and an accoutrement ,to the ploughed field which probably did not help.

Nothing much on the water when we arrived but lots of Gulls on the water as we drove off later.

A distant piece of wood attached to a fence post (that I ignored at first) flew off and morphed into a Green Woodpecker - no photo - doh!

Late afternoon I had my usual walk along some very calm and quiet local fields.

A short garden sky watch this a.m. did not reveal Owt - a Mistle Thrush inspected my leaf sweeping skills from a telegraph pole though.
