More Soil Hill to Mixenden Res

A walk of two halves for sure and I know which the best one was - the stretch to Ogden Water. Now 2 GC Grebe & 3/4 Cormorant (one may have flown off).


c21 BH & 10 LBB Gulls. Several Goldfinch, couple Linnet. Male Blackcap seen, 1 Chiffchaff & WW heard. GSW, very few Swallows ditto Meadow Pipit, 1 Greenfinch.





Matters zoomed downhill when I left the promenade heading for Mixenden. A NW breeze eradicated birds both from the landscape and my memory. Probably the same Tufted from 20 July is present but I still ain't got a bleedin clue what that moth is.
