A sunny but extremely cold day today - well it seemed that way on Soil Hill top where a strong ESE wind blew.
A great day for a walk but , apparently , not so great for birds.
I went up Taylor Lane over Soil Hill main paths and along Ned Hill Track.
Home was via Ned Hill Road , Ingham Lane and Bradshaw Lane.
Having seen nowt I changed into my leaky wellies to walk along 'the bog' through the farms to Ned Hill Road bottom and back.
Having seen next to nowt again ............
I cleaned me wellies , then Abi's football boots , then had a chocolate Oaty biscuit and a coffee and sat wondering where It had all gone wrong today!
Birds:-
1st Outing: 3 Red Legged Partridge.
2nd Outing: 4 Stock Dove.
Gulls, as usual, kicking about on both outings but very few in the fields.
A big un might be summat? - see pic.
The big Ogden wind turbines , which were sold to us as the future for power generation, have had 2 out of 9 units immobile the last twice I've looked at them from soil hill over a few weeks.
Which could be a loss of 22% if my maths is K-orrect - how much brass is that then?
