Whiteholme Delivers The Goods

Well worth the effort this morning even if it was a crawling start. Got my first annual Wheatear a very noisy male. A bit late but that’s the way it is with our avian amigos.

Then it got really good with not one but 2 Little Ringed Plover 

A bit distant for good photos but adequate for species identification methinks 🙂.

Also in on the act: m Reed Bunting, 1 Raven, 3 Curlew, 1 m Pied Wagtail couple Skylark & a fair few Meadow Pipit.

I trust these amorous Toads found a hole big enough to get through to the water. I saw them creeping quite a distance on the bone dry track.
