Grey Heron by the path, Roe Deer down Ealees Valley and a Swallow at the farm above the Sea Cadets hut, Hollingworth Lake

An early visit this morning in cold clear conditions.  A Grey Heron was by the path, but took off as I tried to photograph it. A Roe Deer was visible from Rakewood Road looking down Ealees Valley, and from the hide not very much, but it was so cold that you could see the Mallards' breath as they quacked!  A swallow was at the farm at the top of the track behind the Sea Cadets' hut.
