…a day makes. I went up onto the moors at the weekend and while it was cold on Saturday, it was positively wintry on Sunday with a covering of snow. Despite the weather, it was a canny weekend.
One of the birds I went up to the moors to see was Wheatear and there were a few around. This one is a female.
Males were also showing well.
This male did not like other males encroaching on its patch.
A Thrush singing its heart out from the top of a tree on Saturday.
Same Thrush singing away in the same tree on Sunday.
Male Wheatear sitting on a rock in the snow.
Female Wheatear
Meadow Pipit.
The snow did not stop this Wren from singing.
This small piece of ice caught my eye. It was hanging by a thread from a bridge handrail and was spinning in the breeze. I just love the way the different facets catch the light as it spins.
