WEB's St Davs

Whilst doing the Webs count today I was struck by the number of Snipe and Song Thrushes by the roadside and in the roadside ditches. Many were huddled in pathetic postures clearly struggling to combat the cold as were many Golden Plover and Lapwing in the short grass fields. A good count of wildfowl including Teal, Mallard, Wigeon, Gadwall, Pochard, Tufted Duck, Shoveler. Also I can’t remember seeing so many day time flying Woodcock and Snipe as in the last few days (without a dog that is)
Luckily we are without snow so far.
