Bishop Monkton Birders: Sledgehammers
http://bishopmonktonbirders.blogspot.com/2012/02/sledgehammers-after-disappointing-start.html
A blog of Aidan Smith's ringing activities - Normally, these take place at sites near Bishop Monkton and in Wharfedale. Thursday, 9 February 2012. After a disappointing start to the season, I was determined to get out ringing at the weekend. Saturday morning was out due to other commitments and with the big snow event on Saturday evening the chances of getting to our site Sunday were not looking good. An early drive, on roads you could have sledged down, paid off as all the muppet.

A blog of Aidan Smith's ringing activities - Normally, these take place at sites near Bishop Monkton and in Wharfedale. Monday, 21 February 2011. Great, an extra hour to wait before the Swallows roost, the Owls hoot and the Nightjar churr. Http:/ www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-12523164. Saturday, 19 February 2011. It’s grim up north. The week started well with 27 Waxwings in the tree behind my house. Hastily I turned my garden into a fruit salad but they’ve not been back since. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
