Common People - Pulp

APOLOGIES FOR LATE ARRIVAL, COMMUNICATION BREAKDOWN!

 While overnight temperatures continue to cling to low double figures we continue to catch Moths, but not always the right ones, while the wayward

TAWNY OWL
has returned to provide the nocturnal backing vocals and no matter how many we can never resist the temptation to publish images of

MERVEILLE du JOUR

whenever they grace our traps and on this occassion accompanied by both

RED-LINE QUAKER
and closely related

YELLOW-LINE QUAKER
Apart from that, the day was very much down to more common fare, but we can only give you what happens along! It would seem, after our previous report of such things,

CORMORANT
continue to arrive at what has become a traditional over-wintering location along the course of the Moors River.
The Golf Course too was also hosting both

BLACK-HEADED GULL
and

MOORHEN

neither being usual at

this location!
The 'COMMON' theme continued with the presence of both

ROOKs
in waiting

to steal the chickens food

from right under thier beaks

ably assisted by the local flock of

JACKDAWs
while the sighting of this

PHEASANT

on the bund brought to our attention just a single remaining stem of

RED CAMPION
while the masses had died off weeks ago!
we will now spend the next 24 hours trying to buck our ideas up, but the continuation of rain ain't going to help in that!
