Wainstalls Circular to Mixenden

Cold Edge Dams: pr Oystercatcher, 2 Curlew similar Lapwing, Grey Heron, 6 Tufted Duck & 2 WW. 1 Reed Bunting singing.





Pr Swallow breeding up the road apiece.
Meadow Pipits & Skylarks. Ogden was virtually redundant just a GC Grebe on the drink.



I managed a couple of Blue Tit shots with food in beak. According to Strachanwatch (puke) this is of some significance this year.



The golf course coughed up a couple more WW, Skylarks & Meadow Pipits. A Grasshopper Warbler I listened to for a couple of minutes is probably the bird I encountered twice previously at the site. Also a Reed Bunting & a pr Linnet.

The latest addition to Mixenden Res Landfill site aka Reservoir is a major section of a broken lawnmower. The water supported c20 Canada Geese which left after seeing me jumping up and down.
