Went looking for the GGS in Bakewell yesterday (2nd April) although sadly I couldnt find it despite looking for some 2 hours.
I wasnt too disappointed as I got to spend some time in the sun and saw some Finches and Robins, even the Pheasants were out.
Later that day I had a Bday present which was a 1hr ride in a Balloon, and it was great following the A6 up to Buxton being blown by the wind, seeing all the different landscapes and countryside, makes me appreciate that im fortunate to live in such a area as the Peak District.

Was walking on Dartmoor today and found a Great Grey Shrike behind Soussons at Postbridge. It was the first one I'd ever seen and was pleased when later on two other people confirmed the sighting. A Willow Tit also appeard,some B :) Stonechats and plenty of Pipits.
