Top Poster: glsammy (15,067) | | Welcome to our newest member, rickyhobson | |  | | Oh Wow.
I had seen one before on the Dee Estuary when we had come on it by accident, not knowing what it was and were just stupified by the magnificence of it all as the swirling masses changed shape and shade and finally spiralled down into the reed beds beside the river.
This was different, by now I knew the theory, had seen it so often on television, and thought that I knew what to expect and where and when and we were there in plenty of time having been volunteered the information... | Member of the Wild Empire | | Comments 0
|  | Sorry blog, I have neglected you terribly....
Time for a spot of catching up..... Now, where to begin......
Well, late in January, I achieved one of my ambitions and saw my first SEO !!!! What a bird! It was on LHF and lifted up about 60 ft from the track then swept across a pasture doing stalls and drops as it went. I was thrilled! Didn't realise just how lucky we were though, as that day turned out to be the last reported sighting of the SEOs on this site... | Wild Member | | Comments 2
|  | | I cannot count the number of times my wife and I have seen cyclists and walkers on local roads who have been almost invisible in the dark or in failing light.....and it is a concern to me that when I go walking I am visible to motorists.
Sadly my white zipper is cming to the end of its life and I have been looking for a replacement for some months now and failed totally. There are no pale coloured or white jackets in the shops, at least not in the shops I have found. There are no jackets... | Member of the Wild Empire | | Comments 0
|  | | I have oftenwondered what the birds do when it is raining...I know some of them carry on regardless but certainly some of them must take shelter somewhere or other: they just drop out of sight.
Today is a case in point: have had blackbird and robin in the garden but aprt from one very bedraggled looking collared dove that is it. Done a few miles as a car passenger and seen absolutely nothing over lunch time.
Stopped briefly at Slathwaite and looked at the canal.The weather was so bad... | Member of the Wild Empire | | Comments 0
|  | | It looked wonderful at lunch time after a grey wet morning: the sky was blue, the sun was shining and the promised sunny afternoon was with us so I went, and I'm glad I went when I did becasue now the sky is grey and driving rain is falling again, wave after wave being driven across the valley,pulses of it beating against the window glass.
I got as far as the edge of the moor from which the wind was howling down and decided not to go moorside but to take the lower route with stiles alongside... | Member of the Wild Empire | | Comments 0
