Ken Hill, Bell Mount (Farm) - 17th December 2021

 Another visit to Ken Hill, this time to explore part of the working farm arable fields complex. We were hoping to catch some of the winter finch flocks that make good use of the field margins, seeded to provide food for wild birds. This was a first effort and we were also at a distinct disadvantage being unable to observe what was happening much further than a few metres away in the dense fog.

All considered we didn't do too badly, and now having an improved plan for future sessions.
