User's notes

they dropped down onto the road from the tree above, one flew off quickly but the other 3 stayed together for a short time, I was distracted by a car coming down the "closed road", when I looked back they were gone. Apparently this bloke "sneaks" (his words) down here the back way to go fishing, he drove his car right in under the trees. Didn't want to say too much more other than "thought this road was closed". Not sure how it works for that, but wouldn't have thought it was worth fishing there.
