Cloudy,cold northeast.My last walk around the lakes of 2009 was very quite,which just about sums up the winter period so far.The only thing of note was a flock of 40 Goldfinch in the Brookland car park at the end of my walk.
Phil was on his way around,it will be interesting to see what he finds.
Happy New Year to all readers.

ReplyDeleteYour diary posts make fascinating but worrying reading........how will today's sightings compare to what we (hopefully) will be seeing in 30 years time?
On a more optimistic note, a very happy new year to you and yours.
Phil
