We did our usual walk around the valley - on the way back we had another look at the lodge, the Cormorant was drying itself in the little bit of sunshine we got this morning. https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-4VoZeO9cvYs/Ts_ZTH291NI/AAAAAAAA7Hg/toiQcxNIArE/s640/Cormorant%25252025.11.11%252520%25252...

Two Roe Deer near Burgh Lane South - heading toward Duxbury.

On the way back behind the top lodge a dog fox which looked in fine condition was running across toward the lodge.

Hi Gary we saw these heading south around 8.35am this morning, we were on the Lower Burgh Meadow, I could only say they were geese :) Could they be the pinkfoot you saw? https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-JPQXf2O6Ylc/Tqf8tkTbmLI/AAAAAAAA6Bw/rLMdlqwfROg/s640/Geese%25252026.10.11%252520%252520%2525281...

Dave it's at the far end of Big Lodge facing the old feeding station/Kingfisher Channel. Hope that makes sense

Just behind the top lodge two roe deer ran off into Burgh Wood Only managed a poor shot of the back end of one. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-4AF0eXTeSV0/Tp_6KOrolMI/AAAAAAAA5-w/nQE4nNx0RS8/s640/Roe%252520Deer%25252020.10.11.JPG Then a Kestrel hunting further on between Spring & Burgh Wood ...

We were down as usual yesterday the heron was in it's spot, plus I saw what I thought a snipe as you can see from the photo there were I think 5 snipe - they really are well camouflaged. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-VgOJLm63AgI/Tp6RClD_CrI/AAAAAAAA590/bxV-gevVlr0/s640/Snipe%25252019.10.11%2525...

I think you are right with NXY - have sent an email.

We found them in 2008 & 09 but not last year. There are times we avoid the log as we are not as nimble these days, so we probably missed them. Will have a look this year. Golden Spindle - Clavulinopsis fusiformis taken in August 2008 near slippery log. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-oSLeEB1k...
