We had a drive over to Littleborough this morning to have a walk at Hollingworth Lake.
It was bright when we left Bradshaw but very dull at the lake, but it remained dry.
Our usual visitors centre café visit was unavailable , the café being closed for a face lift.
It looks like a major job so it might take some time, the car park there, however, was open as usual.
We just did one circuit of the water.
A great chainsaw carving can be seen, half way around the lake.
Birds:-
Herring Gull, Black Headed Gull, Lesser Black-backed Gull, Mallard.
Great Crested Grebe, Canada Goose, Moorhen, Common Gull.
Teal, Cormorant, Mistle Thrush, 2 Grey Wagtail, 2 Pied Wagtail.
There was a Lesser Black-backed Gull with a great deal of white in the wingtips at restwhile looked 'unusual'
c80 flock of Lapwing.
.... and a few others.
A Kestrel was seen near Baitings reservoir on our way home.
