All is not quite as it may seem with this 'webcam'. Did it

Dave
tells us: "Burrington is a small village in North Devon
with about 500 people within the Parish. We are about 540
feet above sea level about a mile to the west of the Taw valley,
'Tarka Country'. There is a Post Office shop, a pub - the
Barnstaple Inn, and a primary school."
"So
far there have been reported sightings of foxes, sheep, a
cat, a possible UFO - and Elvis (although someone maybe having
a joke with that one!)"
We
think you should check out some of the
pictures as Dave keeps his tongue firmly in his
cheek (Is it April 1st by any chance?)
Here
are just a few of the sights that have been seen
on the Burrington webcam:
