Chiffchaff, Green Woodpecker, Carrion Crow and Doultons Clay Pit


A sunny, blustery day - not as warm as yesterday - and a chiffchaff, green woodpecker and carrion crow were snapped. It was a good day at the races too as the horse I got in the work's sweep, Saint Are, finished 2nd in the Grand National. Backed at £10.00 each way the 33-1 shot pocketed me £92.50 winnings and only fell short of a win by the odd metre or two which would have meant an extra £340 quid or so. So near yet so far!
