Pellon Lane HX Monday 17 Dec
Courtesy of DP. Arrived at 0920 hrs and got really lucky - a Waxwing was perched atop a tree as Dave parked the car. When we got out it had flown and within a minute or so 3 others flew after it but we never relocated them. Subsequently DW had travelled to the same site and failed to see them.
There were lots of Redwings plus a few Blackbird and Fieldfare feeding on berries.
Brighouse Rd Sunday 16 Dec
DP reports getting out of bed at an hour I thought was fictional 0300 to investigate a Tawny Owl blasting away. Turned out it was in the trees on the opposite side of the frog n toad where I found a deceased one a while back.
