Leeshaw 10:15 (ish).
A bright sunny morning with a slight nip in the air.
I had a drive out to Leeshaw this morning
and a chance meeting with Mick W. from Haworth. We had a good natter and Mick
showed me a great shot he'd taken a few mins before I had arrived of a Little
Ringed Plover.
Try as we might it did not appear again while
I was there.
We even tried turning a
couple of likely looking stones near the water into a LRP but after resorting
to the scope decided that this LRP was definitely made of rock!!
Thanks for you efforts Mick.
There were lots of birds moving about with
a good number of Canada and Greylag Goose, 2 Oystercatcher, Redshank, 2 Common Sandpiper, Swallow, Heron, Willow Warbler, Meadow
Pipit, Pheasant, Wheatear, 1 BHG and 1 LBBG.
Leeming 13:00
Leeming was its usual quiet self with a
single Greylag, Mallard, Pr. Goosander and a pr. Coot (I don't remember seeing Coot here
before).
Willow Warbler, Wren, Curlew calling from
the moor, a few Meadow Pipit, Pheasant and the usual small birds.
