17th March - cloudy morning, giving way to sunny spell, 10C, but NE light wind/breeze still feeling cool

First thing on entering the field to feed the sheep with lambs a young, well grown, Fox was spotted right next to them, looking around and at them whilst picking up items from the ground and eating, probably sheep droppings and other morsels.  It was completely oblivious to me and then it ran down the side of all the sheep and lambs, by this time they had made it to their troughs, eventually about 15 yards from me it spotted me and decided to make a hasty retreat.

There were about 30 Redwings with a few Starlings feeding on one of the pastures this morning too.
