Snow Buntings
No news for the last couple of days, any reports appreciated, positive or negative.
They are to the right of the track, in the grassy area. Dress up warm. Don't let the green fields in Daves photo fool you. There's snow and ice up there on the top, and the gentle breeze cuts right through you.
I know exactly how cold it is, was up there early and couldn't find them. Despite a good walk round I managed two pheasants, reported this to Brian who was just setting off up there as I was leaving, fortunately he decided to continue, dedication. Was unable to get back up there this afternoon and they probably won't hang around until I can get back up there. Bugger!
Nice to see you up there Jim, it took nearly an hour to find them and I put the message straight out in case you had stayed local. Hopefully they,ll stay on over the holiday weekend and give us another chance.
Copies are available at £6.00 each from the GO local store at Woodlesford, Pellon price . Hopefully they will also be available at the Fox and Goose Hebden Bridge ,
