Ay up, want to head back up to vane farm in the next couple of days, but, only if the Loch has thawed out a bit more.

Can anyone tell me how it goes up there, and whats on the go at the moment?

Cheers

  • Hi borderlass , not been over for a couple o  weeks but i`d guess it`s ice free .  Dropped ma binos and damaged them so im wondering what to get next , cash flows poor this month . Anyhow hope you get nice weather .

    take nothing but pictures, and leave only footprints

    Guess again Dov, there was still frozen patches on it.

    Oh NO pity about the Bino's, I have everything insured, hope you get back out and about soon.

  • It is ice free. Vane has a few wigeon, Teal and Whoopers. The main waterbody is good for Goosander. they are everywhere in good numbers.there are a few pinks around too. I heard a Greenland Whitefront fly over me last night at dusk. There is a lovely gang of Redpolls around the feeders at vane Farm also.

    I'd give up all this wildlife watching for a season ticket for my beloved Bristol Rovers
