The theme for this thread will be fieldwork - everything posted has and will be observations made from life.
Currently we still have at least one foot firmly entrenched in winter, which means lots of geese and not a huge amount else, but a red-throated diver flew calling over the cottage yesterday and a Sanwich tern was spotted among a gull flock too, so there's just the suggestion that spring may at some point condescend to make an appearance.
That means skuas and auks, with a bit of everything and anything else thrown in. Til then however, the diet is goose (ringed plovers, purple sands, blackbirds and rooks pop up from time to time). The big wide open-air is the place - that's where I'm going!
