Me and the boy covered just under 10 miles on the other side of the valley today. Beautiful around Neath Golf club. Stunning Female wire haired Vizsla up there as well.

Good few Buzzards were around along with a couple of Red Kites. Nice to add Kestrel to the year list. Not many around here at all.

Isn’t that interesting, do you think it is lack of food? I see a kestrel at least once a week when I am walking from one school building to the other in very urban Tipton, Sandwell!

Not sure tbh Julie. They used to nest under the M4 bridge when I was a kid but haven’t done so for years. You do see them but far from weekly.

Shorter walk from home today. Covered c4miles but pretty steep in places so not too bad exercise. Finally had a male Stonechat.

Well the plans have changed. Pup will have to make do with a walk up the mountain. Looks like I’m making Welsh Cakes with my oldest.

Happy St David’s Day all.

Wandered down to the Square Pond today with Bud. Year ticked GCG. Beautiful weather here today.

Somebody else enjoying the sun took a real shine to Bud. He sat there giving her his paw and blagged himself a pack of ready salted crisps

Went for a walk up the lane yesterday before work and heard a Stock Dove.
