A dull, dull November day, in more ways than one.
A trip down to Lightcliffe this morning with a walk down the main road and along to Catherine Slack and up Coach Road.
Hoping for Brambling.
I am wondering who has chloroformed all the birds?
Just a Nuthatch and a few Long Tailed Tits seen along with the more commoners.
Bradshaw 12:30 - 14:45
Hoping to redeem this mornings poor outing I took a walk along Bradshaw Lane, Ingham Lane to Ogden and back via Percy Road.
Another very, very quiet outing.
8 Goldcrest along the Ogden circuit, just one Chaffinch - no sign of Brambling.
Usual small Gulls with 3 Lesser Black-backed Gulls on the water.
A Great Spotted Woodpecker flew overhead as I was leaving Ogden.
Percy Road had a Kestrel and a few Pheasant.
Even my 'get out of jail' - Little Owl failed to show up.
Must get some underarm deodorant I think.
Great to see the B.O.G blog has published some pictures of the Ilkley Hawfinch (that I tried, and failed to spot yesterday) - good stuff.
This link should take you to the B.O.G. webpage
Not an easy birding day today John seemed to be quiet everywhere.
ReplyDeleteGet down Park Lane for Brambling mate.
Cheers for the comment.
