Another snowy lunchtime

I brought my camera in to take some snow shots in my lunch hour today, and I’ve realised I forgot to take the battery out of the charger, so it’s another photo-free post!

There was some interesting stuff around, the best being a totally unexpected lapwing in Crookes Valley Park, which was on the grass and chased off by a couple of magpies! Also in the park were 35 black-headed gulls, 4 blackbirds, 8 long-tailed tits, and a few blue tits, great tits, chaffinches and goldfinches.

A quick walk round Ponderosa brought up 10 redwing, a goldcrest, at least 6 goldfinch and at least 15 magpies, including 11 in one tree.
