Life In The Freezer

How cold it was today, I nearly froze my balls of my feet off. Here is a couple of images and it shows the difference between St Just and Marazion, Field Fare and Snipe photographed at Marazion. My apologies for repeatng the species ( Redwing and Lapwing). I also froze my ass off looking again for the Richards Pipit.

Laps an Goldies

Here are a couple of shots from yesterday and today, hundreds of Golden Plover and Lapwing around St Just and Lands End. Loads of Snipe flying around we have had a few flocks over the house. It will be interesting to see how the Redwing fair if the snow takes hold in West Cornwall.

Golden Plover

Out for an hour this afternoon and came across a field full of Golden Plover at Crows An Wra and some were quite close to the hedge. We also saw high numbers of Field Fare, Redwing, Lapwing, but I failed again to nail the Richards Pipit. we also had a nice view of a hunting Barn Owl catching a vole. I will try and photograph him tomorrow. . Please click on the images to enlarge
