Walking

I am still here.... I haven't been anywhere and have been walking locally. I haven't been taking my camera with me but today I did. The battery had died when I turned on the camera it has been so long! 

Firstly I hit my target to walk 2,000 miles on November 30th so I am now going for 2,200!

The local sparrows

You can tell its winter since I walked to the Netteswell pond for the first time since maybe January !!!

I think it is the biggest of my local ponds and I live in hope of a duck other than a Mallard but..... today it was Mallards, Coots, Moorhen, Herring Gulls, Black Headed Gulls and Common. Gulls

I then headed back and decided to head to the New Hall pond

This is the Coalport pond the  closest to my house and the smallest of the 5 main ponds I watch. Oddly it is often packed with ducks this time of the year whereas the split pond 50 yards further on had just 2! but quite about 5 Moorhens
