Good photo Dave, thats got to be a site tick, was it on the moor towards Dean Head or straight down the track from the seed near the stream ?
nice pics,good to see you tonight

Certainly a site tick for me Brian. It was just down the track from the seed by the stream. A little fenced off area with a pair of rough looking Stonechats with 2 young there as well.
Hope you got all your shopping done Darrell - hardly recognised you without your bins!
