Sunday morning, having packed away at Gunwalloe, I arranged to meet my mate Pog and Dougy at Predannack Airfield. Dougy carefully explained the intricacies of the perceived hierarchy of the various users of the airfield ....and it was agreed that model aircraft fliers make birding and mothing look normal.....and the feasibility of getting our own model with a massive prop on the front to hunt down and shred the prized specimens was considered, or the possibility of hacking into the frequency with our own control box, and stonk the plane straight into the ground at high speed....
A quick sweep of the airfield driving the main runway and taxiways eventually produced a Dunlin and five Ringed Plover, plenty of Wheatears, and the provocative shout of 'harrier!' when the rusting hulks hove into view....
A good walk around Windmill Farm NR, produced few birds, and spiders seemed the order of the day.

No one had a lens with a wide enough angle to get a shot of your legs!
