A Goldcrest has been singing the last few days in the Church area.
I spotted a lone Lapwing flying to the north of the village close to the Bittesby fields. Once Lapwing wintered and bred in the Parish and immediate close area, possibly a 1000 wintered and several breed in the fields, these have practically gone now. So, to see one may suggest an early bird looking for a breeding area, or just one passing by. There are still some that winter a few miles away, possibly 200-300 maximum, but seemingly less yearly.
