Cold Edge Dams

A slow start but it turned out alright at the finish 😁. 3/4 Curlew and a sitting Lapwing. 3 Swift, 6 Swallow, 1 Greenfinch.

Haigh Cote Dam was barren. Leadbeater had a Cormorant and Canadas on it and nearby a Grasshopper Warbler reeled for the duration. This is quite acceptable as it’s my first of the year 👍.

2 Reed Bunting, 4 Linnet and 4 Stonechat juveniles. 3 Blackbird & several Meadow Pipit.



This female Ghost Moth was waiting for me on my arrival home. Thanks to Messrs AC and DJS for providing identification.
