Most memorable were:

Buzzards swooping over the car driving past Carn Galver in Cornwall.

A pheasant that lept out from the grass at my feet at (I think) Notgrove.

A fox that scrambled vertically up the hedge holding the Sennen Stone when I disturbed it.

Various hares at different sites.

Oh, and Sodding Cows!!



HA! Cows are my main "wild life" spotting. Cows at Nine Stones Close that wouldnt leave me alone, cows at Stanton Drew, cows at Arbor Low, cows pretty much everywhere. And crows! Crows just love stones; they must just get a "vibe" or something.

Saw a huge amount of nuthatchs at Kilpeck Church and a cheeky robin too! Saw a terrified looking shrew on the way to Lligwy. Got my fingers corssed for some good wildlife next week in Scotland (could someone order me a few deer please, I've never seen wild deer in this country)
