An hour and a half late afternoon today, having a look see at Ogden Water.
Pretty wet ,but bearable non the less, as I did the usual circuit of the water.
Half way around I heard some begging cries coming from the woods. Hoping for an Owl sp. I following the cries.
I traipsed through the high, wet ferns and eventually located the source of the beggars - 3 Sparrowhawk.
I cannot recall hearing young Sparrowhawk calling previously.
The birds were very active flying about in the dark tree canopy and as I waited around I did get some, mostly fleeting, glimpses of the birds intermittently.
With thanks to Calderdale Grapevine.

16 Lesser Black-backed Gulls.
6 Black Headed Gulls.
2 Cormorant.
2 Great Crested Grebe today (definitely).
4 Swallow, Bullfinch, Chiffchaff and Chaffinch.
