A couple of enjoyable circular walks today.
First this morning a circular walk to Soil Hill, where both Ned Hill and Soil Hill were bereft of birds.
After lunch I had a circular walk from home to Holdsworth
A very , very cold day, dull but dry.
The first day of winter and the shortest day (in my book anyway) and the bird life was "as expected" ( although several Pinkies were reported - I never eyeballed any).
Birds:
A.m.
3 Stock Dove.
A few Herring Gulls over Percy Road included one with a leg ring.
(Probably the same Herring Gull as I had earlier this week).
A Heron over Bradshaw Lane.
P.m.
Great Spotted Woodpecker in Bradshaw Park.
8 Goldcrest.
A few Gulls.
Not a lot else.
Still it was good to be out in the fresh air bart fog.
You can just about make out a leg ring
Not much white in the primary wingtips.
But I'm not clever enough to try and turn it into a Yellow Legged Gull.
