7 bramblings present this morning. 

Also whilst walking alongside the B & M store in Rawtenstall this morning I disturbed a female sparrowhawk trying to kill a feral pigeon.  Fortunately for the pigeon and unfortunately for the sparrowhawk I disturbed the sparrowhawk and both birds flew off. 

merry Christmas everybody

Kevin
