February 6th 2009

Its snowing again so giving my legs a rest - hope to be out later with Dave. Meanwhile folks I have just posted the first four days of our holiday in Gambia - look under 28th January blog.

Draycote Water was closed when we arrived this afternoon presumably due to the weather conditions and no idea if it will be open this weekend so we had a cuppa at Long Itchington Diner seeing Treecreeper and Muntjac in the hedgerow opposite. Did a tour of the valley but there was little activity with all the fresh snow about though we did manage a hundred Chaffinch at Woodbine Farm which included at least one Brambling. Also seen were 2 Buzzard, a few Fieldfare and a Sparrowhawk.

STOP PRESS
The Draycote Water Sailing Club web site is informing its members tonight that the site is closed tomorrow.
