Snow on Cheviot

The morning of 28th November were spent surveying vegetation on the lower slopes of Cheviot.  There was not a lot to report with the exception of a light dusting of snow on the upper slopes.  Birds were almost anonimous with the exception of good numbers of red grouse and one vocal wren. 

Climbing corydalis, creeping buttercup and bell heather were still in flower.  A fox moth caterpillar was also found.
