Defying Gravity

Another visit to the coastal supermarket found everything on its appointed shelf. The group also had great close views of Yellowhammers, Skylarks, singing male Linnets, Swifts, Swallows, & House and Sand Martins. A Small Copper was spotted and a single Chimney Sweeper Moth being battered by the wind. one of the biggest surprises were the 2 Roe Deer clinging precariously on to the cliff edge. Some spectacular raptors were seen, which were 'lifers' to some on the course. This is a highly popular venue with all participants!
