    Nuthatches now regulars at my seed feeder. They're fussy about their food too.

    Red kite again on today's run. They had become so commonplace, it wasn't worth mentioning them. But then I haven't seen them for a few weeks. Welcome back.

    Welcome back.
    That's nice. But do they read the Forum?

    There are so many pseudonyms on here, I can't rule it out. It would explain why I haven't seen them out flying for a while.

    What a lovely thought. That Always Injured is out there somewhere in the great blue sky, fluttering his little wings...and squawking, squawking, squawking.

    Haha I’m really split over Mike (AI). On one hand he was just so annoying with his longwinded ramblings on here, answering any counter point with an even longer rambling post within seconds (and so on and so forth until 99.99% of all forum posts became Alwaysinjured ramblings). On the other hand he and another fine chap Bill came to my rescue for my BGR in horrific weather in September 2013, turning up as last minute volunteers for the 2:30 am shift at Dunmail Raise and enjoying an absolutely torrid time over night with me on leg 3. Like most of us I guess, incredibly annoying and incredibly helpful in equal doses 😊

    I must admit i'm a fan of his BG Leg 1 variation via Skiddaw House... what a legacy to leave!

    Whilst out on my bike today I saw 2 Red Kites having fun on the updraft above the limestone escarpment at the bottom of Long Dale near Hartington. Not seen them in that area before.

    Out later with the dogs disturbed a Heron fishing in a Dew Pond about six feet away over a drystone wall. Beautiful.
    Visibility good except in Hill Fog

    Update.

    Nuthatches are wankers and are costing me money in wasted seed. I'm now technically a barley grower because of them wazzing it out all over the place. Mind you it's not half as bad as trying to rake leaves with your shoes clogged with cat crap, the stench...ugh.
