Return to Normal


During the fairly long spell of cold mornings there were few sightings of deer on the moor. We assumed they would be on lower ground in the woods. This morning was a little milder and two stags were quietly browsing.
Interestingly the morning westward movement of jackdaws and rooks had also halted presumably because their daytime feeding ground was frozen and unproductive. Almost at the same time as the normal A625 commuter traffic into Sheffield returned after the Christmas break the jackdaws returned to their normal routine in the opposite direction.
