A rarely walked path...for me

I took out the family for a visit to the adventure playground and we chose the golf course as our route back.

As well as seeing good views of Hobby hunting low, I also saw a Spotted Flycatcher on the overhead wires, which must have been additional to the 2 reported by Brian in the compound.

Now that the golf course is open to anyone, I might well make a few trips out there, as it offers the best view of the sky on the whole of DP.

I'll be offering the following shots as a contribution to the 'sites of interest' pages on the new FOLL website, hopefully launching in the next 3-4 weeks.









There are plenty of places a good bird could be hiding, damp ditches might produce a Stonechat, various other open areas too for Wheatear, pipits, or if we want to get really optimistic a shrike, or a Hoopoe. If DPCS would corden off some areas so nobody could walk, it could have a really positive impact...but they won't of course.
