http://voff-snowdonia.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 26 June 2012. Changing face of Blaenau Ffestiniog. And at the Station Entrance. Monday, 25 June 2012. Nightjars in the Vale of Ffestiniog. What does a nightjar sound like? Rob will be leading a nightjar walk on Saturday 30. June and on Friday 6. July starting, presumably from the entrance to Gwaith Powdwr. If you can’t make it, turn off your lights, turn up the volume, close your eyes and listen to the film above. The birdsong and call is courtesy of BirdVoice. Sunday, 24 June 2012. The followin...

Campbell's Cottage: January 2015
http://campbellscottage.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Campbell's Cottage, the cottage with the platform www.campbellscottage.co.uk. Friday, 2 January 2015. 50 years ago today the first sod was cut; the deviationists were on their way to Blaenau. I walked up expecting to see a garland or maybe some people reliving old memories but it was all peace and quiet at the stone. Christmas trains have been great to watch. This is what it was like on the day after Boxing Day:. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Simple template. Powered by Blogger.

Campbell's Cottage: October 2014
http://campbellscottage.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Campbell's Cottage, the cottage with the platform www.campbellscottage.co.uk. Tuesday, 7 October 2014. Days to remember; on the Wales Coast Path. Despite the yo-yo forecast Saturday was a dream day on Llŷn. Starting at the northeast end of Porthor (aka Whistling Sands) we walked to the headland at Uwch Mynydd without seeing a soul; lots of white horses from the north and a fast moving sail doing many more knots than us. No sign of a pup but were the plaintive moans her labour pains? Friday, 3 October 2014.

Campbell's Cottage: Goats looking wonderful
http://campbellscottage.blogspot.com/2015/05/goats-looking-wonderful.html
Campbell's Cottage, the cottage with the platform www.campbellscottage.co.uk. Sunday, 3 May 2015. I knew the goats were in the reserve, just below the house; Sue had seen them as she drove down the hill. I picked up a camera and collected a tripod from my car, then decided not to walk; I’d be less threatening inside a vehicle. Maentwrog National Nature Reserve. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Campbell's Cottage: September 2014
http://campbellscottage.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Campbell's Cottage, the cottage with the platform www.campbellscottage.co.uk. Sunday, 21 September 2014. TrailFfest at Campbell’s. September was the first ever TrailFfest with something like 200 people running close to the railway from Blaenau to Port. Unlike the Talyllyn’s ‘Race the Train’ the Ffestiniog carriages seemed to be dawdling to pick up potential stragglers. Or did they miss the signs? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Simple template.

Campbell's Cottage: July 2014
http://campbellscottage.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Campbell's Cottage, the cottage with the platform www.campbellscottage.co.uk. Thursday, 31 July 2014. If walls could talk. The house is old and the walls are thick; if only they could talk, think of the stories they might tell. And then they did, ankle high in our living room. This is what they said. Is it a family of weasels? Our motion detect camera is in position, trained on a couple of likely holes on the outside. More to follow. Mammals in stone walls. Monday, 28 July 2014. And trunk like proboscis.

Campbell's Cottage: November 2014
http://campbellscottage.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Campbell's Cottage, the cottage with the platform www.campbellscottage.co.uk. Wednesday, 12 November 2014. Mushrooms and other fungi looking good. The vegetable garden is still looking relatively good; cosmos blooms are just about hanging on, nasturtiums are brighter than ever, lots of tall yellow flowers have grown from the green manure mix. Autumn-sown broad beans, onions and garlic are all putting on lots of new growth. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Simple template. Powered by Blogger.
