Not Much To Tell
Tonight's amble around the usual stubble fields was thwarted by an over-diligent farmer who spent many an hour once the sun had gone down yesterday ploughing the fields over. So this evening there was no chance of any sprawk action, nor a repeat of Wednesday dusk's two Kestrels v two Crows 'dogfight', which gave excellent views of the former as they were only about ten feet from the ground, so almost eye-level for me. This evening, West Hartford was the destination for One Man And His Dog. Although it was beautifully cool and clear, with a picturesque sunset, the bird life was negligible. A dozen or so House Martins over the Sub-Station, a Skylark too, and on the flash, a few Pied Wagtails. There is now more mud than water. Definately all quiet on the West Hartford front!

Much the same problem last night at Prestwick Carr with late evening baling preventing much chance of the S e owls hunting although with all the voles running about the place they problem just need to sit and let the prey come to them!
