Shelf Moor and Horton Bank CP

Nothing doing down in the southern fields until I got halfway down boggy Bridge Lane where c33 Fieldfare were flying from field to trees and back again.



Horton Bank Country Park made for an interesting session with aquatic avians.



Pr Mute Swan, 3 female Tufted Duck, 1 each Grey Heron, female Goosander & a GC Grebe.




Gulls in good numbers mainly BHG but also few Common, LBBG & Herring.




Also 5/6 Canada, similar Coot, 3 Moorhen. 
A plague of Magpie but minimal smaller arboreal types.
