Local Farmland (9th March)

Woke up very late on Saturday but still had to do some work before I finally had a brief opportunity to get out.  I opted for a walk up the road and around the farmland near some wind turbines at the top of Penryn.  Obviously not a lot about but a Curlew in the field was a bit of a surprise.  The highlight was undoubtedly a great view of a Stoat that bounded up the road towards me before quickly leaping into the hedge after flashing its obvious black tipped tail at me.
