Soil Hill to Mixenden

Soilage: 2 Wheatear, 3 Meadow Pipit and a distant black chat sized bird seen for a couple seconds flying away from me 😏😕. At bottom of Perspiration Rd a pr Greenfinch on feeders.
The Ned Hill track is ready for the first canal barge tours, shame there wasn’t a solitary bird 🦅 to compliment the mud.


Ogden Res: well what can I say? Cra* springs to mind. Woodlands deserted, multitude of usual gulls on the oggin.



Carrs Beck produced singles of Stonechat & Pheasant.


Mixenden Res actually had some birds on it! Problem is the 5  Goosander couldn’t bring themselves to stay and headed up in the direction of Cold Edge.




I wonder if it was because of Mr&Mrs Rectal-Swab and their 12 barking hell hounds? 🥴🤛🏼 Nooo surely not. 
Also 1 each Grey Wagtail & Moorhen, 1 LBB & 9/10 BH Gulls.
