Wintersett 26.03.13

Still lots of lying snow,  a very cold east wind.  Some sunny spells early morning, but clouded over by mid morning.  Track to west bank Wintersett Res. flooded again. The evening weatherman has just said the cold weather and east wind may continue for next 10 days.
Anglers CP: Female Long-tailed Duck,  Redwing 30,  Fieldfare 2,  Starling 300,  Wigeon 232,  Green Woodpecker 1 and  Goldcrest 1.

Looking back  to the 25th March 2012 we had 25 singing Chiffchaffs!  On this day last year it was 19 degrees and we had the earliest ever Orange Tip butterfly.
