The first week of January has been exceptionally mild both by day and by night. The downside is that it’s been dull and cloudy all week with just a few brief spells of sunshine breaking through the gloom.
It’s very similar start to last January which was mild. Although the forecaster’s are predicting some colder weather its duration and intensity are tricky to quantify.
We made the most of the mild weather to visit RSPB Old Moor. The sun didn't manage to make an appearance until late afternoon just as we were about to leave.
As for the birds, well they obviously expected a visit from us and tried to stay well out of reach of our camera lenses.
It's been really mild. I'm not looking forward to the colder weather coming.
ReplyDeleteI'm not either. Fingers crossed it's not too bad.
