    Cylcling home for work last night, through the industrial estate...mr fox legged it across the road infront of me looking for rabbits....he lept into the grass and tried to lie-low and hide from me.

    Saw quite a few black and red birds with 6-7 inch long red narrowish beak as I went through thr Trough of Bowland today - any ideas what they were?
