First walk under Tier 4 regulations

Linda and I enjoyed a 'walk around the block' after lunch today: although it was cold and still a little breezy, I was glad I'd taken my camera. As soon as we reached the woodland edge at Bonds Lane we started to hear - and then see - Buzzards. There were at least six birds, possibly eight swinging around over the treetops: always a special sight. Lots of small finches and tits, as well as several large flocks of Redwings.
