WINDMILL FARM.

On Friday we decided to go to the area around Goonhilly, what a disappointment. 
The 2 pools on the moor just past Goonhilly NR, which are normally swarming with 
Dragonflies had been dredged and drained.
Was it really necessary, surely it could have waited until the winter. 
We moved on to Windmill Farm and although the big pool was drying up we did see
 lots of wildlife. What a great place.

Weekly Round-up.

This is just a round-up of birds seen over the last week. We didn't catch up with any of the Yellow-browed Warblers that are around at the moment. Tried for Firecrest at Helston but only saw one and that was at a distance. The water at Helston was covered in green Algae which looked really smart. We were surprised at the number of Butterflies still around, and at Kynance there were hundreds of Swallows and House Martins hawking, presumably getting ready to leave. Overall though it has been quieter than it should be for this time of year.
