Only a meagre ten mile walk today but conditions whilst morass still frozen and easily passable the snow much softer and more difficult lower down. Nevertheless another cracking day but sad that the sun wouldn't shine when needed for the snaps.  Little obvious activity in the sky throughout. Lapwings again absent from all of the high in-byes and Golden Plovers totally evacuated! and again very few Meadow Pipits / no other moorland passerines. However when walking home from the shops late pm at least 50 mipits lifting off from greening fields to continue on north.... So perhaps the wave is at last starting!
