Siberian Blast

Strong east/ north- east winds coming straight from Siberia, gave very unpleasant sub- zero conditions today. Several trees had been uprooted in the walk since my last visit. A look in Arnold's walk today revealed no birds whatsoever, although Blue & Long- tailed Tits were heard. Little was seen.
Lound water was birdless too.

At the weekend, on Saturday 29th November, a walk around Fallowfields revealed just a Green Woodpecker and a flock of 20 Wood Pigeon flying off from the back garden of a house.
On Sunday 30th November the female Velvet scoter was again at Filby broad albeit right over on the far side.
