A run out for an ice cream to Oxenhope Co-Op this afternoon - another dull, cool August day. A look at Leeshaw Reservoir followed.
Birds:-
Large flock of Lapwing, Starling and Black Headed Gulls left the fields but I could not see any Raptor.
2 Herring Gull, c75 Black Headed Gull.
Swallow, Mallard, Goldfinch, Meadow Pipit calling.
1 sub-adult Gull on the distant far shore line.
Another large Gull over was probably a Lesser Black-backed Gull.
A large Raptor, high, looked a bit Goshawk like but the tail shape is probably wrong although the head and body looked the part.
A Dipper was on the stream.
c20 Swallow were on telephone lines in Haworth.
Nearing home 221 Starlings were on the telephone wires at Pavement Lane.
Local Walk.
2 Little Owl, c95 Jackdaw.
4 Lesser Black-backed Gull, Woodpigeon.
Fox.
The hill by Matthews farm is bound to get a Whinchat soooon!
