Busy Cold Edge

The NE'ly this am could be up for a GBH prosecution I’ll wager.
Despite this the Dams and surrounding fields around them in the lee of the wind were productive 😄.



4 Swallow, 1 drake Goosander, 2 pr Tufted Duck. The Barnacle in with the Canadas & 5 Greylag. 2 LBBG over > N.



8 Lapwing busy defending their sites. A pr Redshank appeared to be looking for one. An Oystercatcher gobbling up goodies. A few Curlew calling & 4/5 Meadow Pipit.



I survived the trek down Hunter Hill and over halfway through Mixenden Res I thought I was in for claiming a blank until I heard a Chiffchaff. JL was stood by the gate and he pointed out a loitering Cormorant.
