Today the most exiting thing was a deer crossing the road a few feet away from where I was sitting.

No deer!!

Early morning trip hoped to see deer non in sight. Cygnets were practicing take offs and landings, two heron flew over. Usually there is only one Canada Goose on the water today two more arrived, after a lot of honking one went off to the other side of the lake.

Fordley North Tyneside, a group on Flickr.

Out for a afternoon walk, hardly saw or heard anything except one obliging Robin who posed for me in a bush in the distance I saw the usual pheasants running and flying for cover. There was only a few gulls on the flood pond in a nearby farmers field.

Nearer to home there was a load of Goldfinch in a tree a pair of Mallard in the Burn. Also a brown bird flew fast and low through the plantation I had the impression of some sort of hawk but I lost sight of it in the trees.

A local passer by told me that they had seen woodpeckers in the trees near where I was standing only saw crows, pigeons and Blue Tit and the Mallard in the plantation.
