January 5th 2008

Enjoyed last nights programme on the Snow Leopard and JJ gave me some sites to help with the identification of the Northern Fulmar. Seems likely it was of a intermediate race.

This morning took the opportunity of good weather to visit the grounds of Rugby Radio Station an old hunting ground of mine when I first took up birding which I had not done seriously for some years. Most of the mast's have now gone and a decision is to be made to turn it to a massive housing development. Presently its typical sterile arable land but managed to find a lone Curlew, a few Snipe, plenty of Wood Pigeon which took the interest of a Peregrine, 100+ Fieldfare and a single Marsh Tit.
