2 The Clilhcroc Advertiser A 7'imes, August 21, 1964 COUNTRY DIARY OUTSTANDING EXPERIENCES


T WOKE early this morning, A five-thirty to be exact, anti lay dozing and listening to the sound of heavy rain. By seven it had eased consi­ derably and I threw open the bedroom window to sniff the air and consider the outlook. Honestly, I was surprised! This indeed was one of the highlights of my stay. I have heard and read of all sorts of things regarded as supreme in experience.

impressed first by the calm and utter serenity of the place. The still damp air was charged with scents from bog and the shore. Prom everywhere came the song of skylarks. Somewhere over the bog a snipe was persistently chippering. Time after time came the familiar sound, but in spite of its close proximity I failed to locate its exact where­ abouts.

Again, as with all other species, the most striking characteristic of this bird was the darker and more distinctive tones of colour, all. 1 suppose, a result of the unpo­ inted atmosphere. Soon, the wjiitcthrot ceased singing, and there was again the still quiet of an island morning. Then came a strange sound—the sound of sheep cropping the grass. They were over fifty yards awav and due to the turfy nature of the ground the hol­ low tearing noise as they tore each mouthful was strangely

amazing incidents. One took place later in the morning, but having been forewarned my anxiety was shortlived. In com­ mon with so many cottage crofLs in the Outer Isles the roofs arc subject to great stress and strain in the winter time when the gales blow in from the Atlantic. Ordinary measures, effective on the mainland, arc totally inadequate in these parts and so the crofter anchors

I watched through the glasses and at this range could note all detail as if the bird were held in the hand. Most impressive, how­ ever. were the gusts and vehem­ ence of delivery. Seldom have I been so fascinated with a bird's song. Not that there was any­ thing very musical about the performance. On the contrary, part of the wliitethroat's song is undoubtedly raucous. It gives one the impression of a young singer, determined to become a success, as if vigour and attack were the main or only import

watching the eagles. Each after­ noon one of the birds came down the glen within 200 yards of the croft to spend time hover­ ing and hunting. There is evi- dentlv some great attraction and I lay'on the ground following its movements through the glasses. To my surprise she dropped at an angle and gently alighted on a stout fencing post. There she sat with head turning from time to time watching. Then she rose, gamed height of about a hun­ dred feet and shot down at an angle with terrific speed to crash in the the tall bracken. Thirty seconds later she rose clasping in her talons some small object which I took to be a thrush or bird of similar size. The entire operation was over in less time than it takes to record and half a minute later she again alighted just on the brow of the hill to take her meal.

Factory Farming. Firstly now that this has become a dirty word, why does the National Farmers Union ask us, in your Issue of August 7, to look on the country side as a great food factory? This expression should be kept entirely for intensive methods, and the true farmer should keep aloof from anything which would confuse the tradi­ tional farm with the “ horror camps" so denounced by the Dean of Llandaff, Glamorgan, in the Llandaff Cathedral Magazine last week.
