Soil Hill to Mixenden

Bradford Council have posted a notice stating planning permission has or is being passed for the provision of extra footpaths on the Hellish Hill that will link up on all points of the compass to existing ones.

5 Lapwing, Oystercatcher, Curlew. Usual Skylarks & Mipits, 1 Greenfinch, 2 Swallow, WW, Whitethroat.

Back Lane was quiet until I got the bridge where a switchback route takes you to Giants Tooth. Here a pr Raven and a pr Crow were having a shouting match that went on for some 25 minutes.
Not much doing otherwise due to people and dogs, a calling Siskin being welcome.

The golf course and Hunter Hill stretch was narcolepsy enshrined.
Mixenden Res produced Redshank, Swallow, 5 House Martin, pr Swift, Chiffchaff.
