Species watch: the Red Poll

Yes I did spell it right.  More here.

A walk technically in Lund, but nearer to Middleton.



The surveilance continued...



Autumn has not yet revealed any of its distinctive features so I will settle with harvest views...




Lund Wold Farm (est 1884) is home to the Red Polls, a lovely breed, if not as famous as the Highlands in yesterdays post, still a pleasant change from the uniformity seen elsewhere...



 
 The overhead surveillance, they don't leave us for long.  Actually I secretly miss the old pre 1992 days when the A10 Warthogs used to fly round these parts...




There is some hawthorn for the winter visitors, yet to arrive.  In fact we were constantly accompanied by swallows and martins, yet to leave...


A pleasant change on a quiet bit of road (1 hour - 2 lorries, 2 vans, 2 cars and 2 bikes)
