What a difference a day makes. Last year's New Year's Day walk took place in freezing conditions. This year, the temperature was around seven or eight degrees. Bird highlights included six Goosanders, two Great spotted Woodpeckers, plenty of winter thrushes and a single Kestrel.

"The grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never dried all at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls".

Love reading your pieces about all the birds you see in this area. I wish I knew more about birds and could identify some of them for myself. Look forward to reading more postings this year
