A Dunnock

Thank you John F-S for this charming dunnock. I must admit I am not very good at telling ‘the little brown jobbies’ apart. Perhaps we should have some bird identification pages here.

Despite all the rain this hazel bush seems to be enjoying the weather.
Do let us know about any other plants making the most of the relatively mild weather.

Although it is a little outside our area, this photo, taken at Carsington Water by Colin G on Sunday morning, is well worth including here:

Thank you David G for these photos of this frosty Sunday morning, is this the the start of colder weather, with perhaps Ski Sunday next weekend?

Does this picture, taken in Monsdale Lane by David G recently, reveal a late summer or a early spring flowering?

Carsington Wind Farm
Posted in 2013, Environment, Out & About, Photography, Posts of Note on Sunday December 1, 2013| 7 Comments »
Thank you to Martin for these photos and links relating to the controversial new wind-farm on Carsington Pastures. Whatever you may think of the merits this development, it certainly photographs well:
Here are some pics of the first wind turbine at Carsington Pastures. The second turbine is probably being erected today.
More details and a map on

and about the local farmer

Note, You can see the turbine from Parwich (as you leave the village to the east past Mooredge, by the junction with Back Lane to Pikehall).
And an even more colourful close
