Local Lanes a.m. / Bradshaw Fields p.m.

Late morning I had the bright idea of looking for Snow Bunting on Soil Hill.

After trudging up a slipper Taylor Lane I realised that there would be far too much deep snow on The Hill to cope with so I turned right and headed off along Percy Road, past the Raggalds and down Bradshaw Lane.

Not a lot about, surprise, surprise.

This afternoon I had a trudge along the local fields to Crabtree Hall Farm and back.

Birds:-

3 Grey Partridge flew over Taylor Lane.

It looks like it will be Monday before the weather gets warmer.
