A late evening outing to Denholme, quite a breezy do, but lovely evening sunshine and a few birds knocking about.
[Yesterday evening was completely different, grim, misty drizzle and windy as I had a stroll along Hag Lane, Swalesmoor. A waste of time really. A Peregrine was seen earlier in the day].
This evening quite a few birds were singing / calling and a few were actually seen!
Reed Buntings called from 3 different locations but apart from a fleeting glance of one bird, the others were well hidden in the reeds.
A Red Legged Partridge was accompanying one chick along a distant path.
A few calling Red Legged Partridge were heard elsewhere as well.
5 or so Curlew remained distant calling and flying over the moors.
Lesser Black-backed Gulls were passing by.
A Pheasant flushed from the path, followed by 3 large young birds.
Swallows in and out of the stables.
A few Meadow Pipit was about all.
