put up a woodcock on the hills this evening on my first run with the new Petzl Nao. Never seen them up there before. Woodcocks, not Petzls.
I've just made friends with a Tibetan border goat.
Pair of Goosanders on the Peak Forest canal this morning.
Anyone know of any Starling murmurations in the Peak yet?
nearly stepped on a hare over at sconce this morning.great to see in our area as they seem to be on the decline
Saw the bearded Tits at Leighton Moss the other day. tried for the Hawfinches at Sizergh but I think its a bit early. Also saw an Otter!!
Small one at west Nab on Sunday, only around a hundred. Explaining it to my five year old daughter was fun.
Geoff I work in Furness Vale and often sit by the river at lunchtime watching what I though were Red breasted Merganisers. I've just Googled Goosanders and they look quite hard to tell apart especially the females.
WC, merganiser (as we called them when we were kids) are mainly birds of the sea or large stillwaters so not a bird for Peakland. Goosander are common on the Derwent and nearby waters
Poacher turned game-keeper
loads of them out our way, its bloody scary stepping on them or a grouse in the dark...Seen a few in the last week that have just started to turn white.
