Snow days, tough on wildlife.
It's a hard living in the snow.
This morning as I was going round the stock, I noticed this rabbit hole in the hedgerow. It was the damage to the young hedge plants that first grabbed my attention, life must be tough for a rabbit at the moment.
The only productive thing on the farm today!
The turbine looks interesting from here, it reminds me of “Ice Station Zebra” It’s been busy over the last few days.
Excuse the poor photograph, but the light was going. The evening crow flight usually just goes to roost but with so little food about, they follow me around as I feed the animals, in the hope of a few scraps.
