No 6 All quiet on the Derwent Front

 With just two pairs of eyes on the December walk, there were very few birds recorded. As leaves are fast falling off the trees, birds should be more visible, but they were just not around.

The duo walked from Darley Park Drive car park, towards town, then crossed the Iron Bridge just after the rowing club and back along the Derwent to the mill area. Crossing the temporary replacement Bridge by Darleys, they turned right and ventured along the path to the two entrances to the Nutwood Reserve.

Time plus signs of pretty muddy paths deterred them from going into the Reserve so they retraced their steps back to the car park. The number of species was embarasingly low, so just to say BOD were Collared Doves.
