Cold Edge Dams To Mixenden

Hard work birding in the warm and windy weather. Cold Edge: c125 Canada, 1 LBBG, 17 BHG. The f Tufted Duck has now lost 3 young with just 1 remaining. I got my first Wheatear in 2 months perched briefly on a wall.

Yet again the golf course Stonechats were creating when I staggered past their patch.

c30 Linnet, 2 Goldfinch, 5 Swallow, 1 Meadow Pipit.

Mixenden was birdless other than a WW and had all the trappings of a holiday resort and dog pound.
