Hunger Hill... little on the move! 05-03-2010

Haze in the Hills and Fog in the Bottoms.... (c) 2010

W F1 becoming W F4, -2degC, 20km, 1/8 becoming 7/8, QNH 1028 falling

0745 - 1100hr

A good diversity but little magnitude with long periods 0f quiet. By 0900hr the sky had closed from the north and without the sun it was bitter cold with the rising wind. The star bird was a single Raven... right over my head... thats when I got onto it first as it happend to "cronk"... followed closely by a tight party of six Twite > W. No woodies and few gulls today! Little else of note despite sticking it out.
