Two ducks chasing a heron along the canal on my way to work, them ducks looked p!ssed, wonder if heron's steal duck eggs?
saw a white deer last night running around Hanchurch woods it was majestic. If anyone knows the area it was not far from the water tower at the top car park.
Today I ran along the coastal bank on the edge of The Wash - I nearly tripped over with the amount of birds I saw over the marshes....
From the top :
1 x Marsh Harrier
6 x Little Egrets
4 x Tawny Owl (including 2 getting rather quarrelsome)
2 x Barn Owl (including one hunting over the marsh beside me for about a mile)
Loads of skeins of geese heading back to land
100s of different wading birds and waterfowl - but i'm not that good with them as I am with raptors!
Cracking way to enliven a run!
Loads of woodpeckers today for some reason, 5 in total (1 green and the rest spotted). The wife saw a stoat (or a weasel) on the chevin and watched it running through a drainage tube for a while before it clocked them and vanished.
Sadly I also saw a badly injured pheasant on the side of a track in Harewood, I'm not sure if it had been attacked or hit by a landrover from the estate but it was still alive and looking very poorly. I was only half mile or so from my turnaround point and had made my mind up to put it out of its misery on the way back if it was still suffering but luckily (for me anyway) it had died.
Bloody Hell Stolly - It is a Teddy Bear! Did'nt know they have started to farm Teds.Haha. They looked just like this though
Had a weekend in the dales and came across 2 small pools heaving with Frogs so much love making going on! All locked together, couples, threesomes, foursomes, it was just a mass orgy of Frogs!
Why should the French have all the fun?
Because they are PASSIONATE
My first summer Warbler, a Chiff Chaff singing........Lovely!
