Back to Winter

 A short, very cold, birding outing from the car park at Denholme Velvets to the Abattoir ruin nr. Ogden Back Lane and a walk along Thornton Rd to look at the north slope of Soil Hill this afternoon.

The weather for the next 10 days looks very, very cold indeed - the few Swallows that have been seen  going north, might be seen again  returning south.

Probably slow the migration -  for a while?

Birds:

Usual birds seen.

6 Curlew.

c20 Lapwing.

3 Oystercatcher.

A few Large Gulls overhead.

c50 Gulls in the air, distant, towards Oxenhope (TMR) reservoir.

Snipe calling from 3 locations (not seen).

Weasel (maybe 2).
