29th October - another cloudy day with spits and spots of rain during the day, giving way to steady drizzle late pm, but mild 13C, breeze SW

Not too much time today and the weather did not help but I did notice a Cormorant flying south and a Green Woodpecker called several times.  There were at least 10 Great Tits and a Coal Tit at the feed station.

Paul told me yesterday that he saw three Munjac deer walking along the field edge the other day, possibly a family.  Munjac, unusually for deer, do not have a breeding season but will raise young all year round, which goes to explain their spread through the country.  I'm sure they are becoming more bold and appearing during the day time now more than they once did.  They really don't have any serious predator here.
