A weasel on Leg 4 of the CWR when I was out on a recce this morning. Respect due, Leg 4 is a tough one to take on for a weasel

Swift spotted closed to Silsden reservoir. Quite possibly by favourite bird and back for the summer :thumbup:

A Peregrine taking a Crow out of the air, Red Grouse and Pheasant all over the place, about thirty French people walking up my hill and Lloyd Taggart. Quite a busy run out, that one!

That could be down to badger baiting. Quite often they just dump the carcasses on the tracks to make it look like an accident.

Pair of blackbirds are nest building in my new woodshed, 'speedbuilding' they are! Unfortunately the nest is on logs not that far in, I hope it isn't a cold summer because I need my logs - they may find their house foundations wobble a bit.
