Fly Flats still frozen over - it was uncanny listening to the ice cracking! It should leave a muddy edge for some waders when it thaws - hopefully.

Talking about uncanny sounds Dave we heard a strange sound this morning at Walshaw Dean. Steve worked out it was pieces of grass and small twigs being blown over the ice on the res. Really weird.
Nice Stonechat pic, Dave.
Stange, that the Goldies were flighty, they were pretty obliging for me the other day, and there was plenty of foot traffic along the road.
