Jay House Lane area

I had another try for the Sandpiper this aft. without success.

An hours walk about, on an unusually mild January day, brought with it a January Curlew!

I enjoyed a chat with Jeff and Susan who I bumped into down there.

Birds:-

4 Stock Dove, 4 Redwing, c12 Long Tailed Tit, Pheasant, Kestrel, Curlew, Great Spotted Woodpecker, 6 Bullfinch, Goldcrest, 100's small gulls, Chaffinch, Great & Blue Tit.

On the way home, flying high in and out of the clouds, by the Queensbury trailer field, were a flock of 28 birds - Lapwing I think.

The Lapwing photos were taken through the car windows.
