What do people want or expect from a CL ?

We had wood pigeons mating on the top of our van when at the Moreton in Marsh site. Until they slid off.

That last sentence seems like a good idea, but I fear those very people who complain because the church has bells which ring and the fields have sheep which bleat would examine the list closely then complain if a single species turned up which wasn't mentioned in advance.

... Assuming they could identify it, of course. . thinking back to the post about honey bees ID'd as hornets...

Maybe they should just concentrate on booking package tours for city breaks, but that's nothing we can affect!

The pigeons at Sandringham wear jackboots and march up and down our caravan's roof at the most ungodly hour; nothing about that in the advert. 

That's because it's a CC site, things like that don't happen on CLs!!

Too true Nellie. Much more exciting. We stood outside one day chatting with friends on a Cornish CL. Heard a screech overhead, then a loud thump to caravan. Seagulls had mobbed a passing buzzard which dropped its dinner, a very dead bunny, slap on our van! It wasn’t nice. 

But we coped. Don’t think CL owners include low flying rabbits in their description. Nor the pesky tree rats that ate OHs bike accessories last week!

But they often state that there's lots of wild life about to see, they just aren't specific about varieties or whether they're alive or dead!

Or what the blighters will eat given the chance! 

Reading the above posts it seems that Owls should not hoot/screech, Kites should not scream like a baby, dogs should be quiet, horses perhaps refrain from heavy breathing and the rabbit, when caught by a fox must not make any noise at all.

What's the matter with townies, have they not heard of the countryside? 

Living in the countryside one really must expect all sorts of things that do not usually happen back home.

We always expect to see what we call a "hoying". Some form of stock will require moving from one place to another, and it usually involves a dog, two quads and few humans flapping something and yelling "hoy, hoy" to keep things moving. It's part of the holiday seeing farming professionals at work. In our time on farm sites we have helped round up loose sheep, the odd cow or two, seen lambs and calves born, watched milking and sheep dipping, and encountered all sorts of farming machinery. Wonderful wildlife as well.
