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.
