Lochore Meadows CP

 Well it's been a long while since I have posted, but we managed at least to get out for a couple of hours to Lochore Meadows Country Park, which is just a 10 minute walk from our lovely new house in Kelty.

We have broken the back of the packing and got the house ready for Christmas, although very different to any other year, in these sad and strange times.

This was very much a quick explore, to find the bird hider and get our bearings. It is a beautiful place and cant wait for the spring to see what we can find.




Plus a few birds: A Little Grebe,


Male Goldeneye,
Female Goldeneye,
and loads of Teal.

A Male Goosander was on the pool, the other side of the reeds, so didn't lend itself to a decent  photo, a Sparrowhawk swooped through, much to the Teals annoyance. A couple of Wigeon were seen, as were a couple of Gadwall and Pochard.

22 Species in all for a short walk, so a good start to our new local patch.
