Where's the sun?

Looked outside this morning expecting to see the sun that was forecast...but no such luck it was overast again, but at least it wasnt raining. Inland seemed the safest bet so we headed for bellingham (not a good idea) there wasnt a parking spot to be had that we could see anyway, so drove straight through and out onto the hexham road. Found a little place called 'stonehaugh' with a really nice picnic area alongside a little stream so we parked up and had lunch. By this time the sun was out to so we sat for a while and watched a few chaffinches, 2 grey wagtails and a pied wagtail flying around the edge of the water. There's some extremely wobbly stepping stones over the stream onto the other side of the grassed area where there are 3 brilliantly carved totem poles...not exactly what you'd expect to see there, but different though.
3 buzzards flying overhead near simonburn. Drove through east woodburn and over the moorland and spotted this deer who didnt seem to be as quick to run off as they normally are. The road came out at monkridge where there were 54 moles hanging out on the fence for everyone to see! I didnt think id ever see anything else that could top the skewered crow from last week...but how wrong can you be!
Next stop was harwood forest where we saw 6 chaffinches, 3 greenfinches, 4 bluetits, 2 great tits, 1 meadow pipit and a willow warbler.
Forecast is sunny again for tomorrow so we might drive up to holy island as its safe to cross all afternoon 12:25 to 22:15
