SW'LY Vacuums Up Well Good

Slipped up at Raggalds Flood; there was a Lapwing on it!
Soil Hill had similar birds to last visit minus Kestrel; the Grey Partridge pr showing even better. There was an unid waterfowl sp. on the far bottom pond.
The gusting SW'ly really did the number on Ogden Res. All the Geesander have gone and the Gulls too bar two; singles of BHG & Common were seen.



Land improvement is underway in the field at the back of Brook House. An excavator is ripping out rocks and earth in the juncus field. Auf Wiedersehen Snipe, Grasshopper Warbler, Reed Bunting und gesundheit.


Couple Curlew up Hunter Hill with a m Reed Bunting singing at the bottom.
Mixenden Res too has been almost cleared of birds just 2 Common Gull, Moorhen, 2 Canada on the drink.
However I did relocate the Redshank and I got my first Chiffchaff of the year singing briefly.
