Didnt get back until 1515 hrs after grand daughter duties with the weather miserable with light snow and murky skies.
Just time to get up to Soil Hill for a quick check of the seed to see if anything new had dropped in but as I arrived at the top of Perseverance Road the fog had got there before me with a few yards visibility and with no time before darkness to go anywhere else it was a quick divert down Taylor Lane and home. The Lapwing flock was over the Raggalds with a count of around 80 but no Golden Plover present whilst a Sparrowhawk whistled across the front of the car by Foxhill school.
See what tomorrow brings, hopefully not fog.
