Bus Rides:
We had a few bus rides interspersed with some walking today,
1st we caught the handy 502 Bradshaw - Keighley bus to Cross Roads and then walked down into Haworth.
A Toasted Tea Cake for lunch in a café and then a visit to the sweet shop at the top of main street before waiting at the bottom of Main Street for the Hebden Bridge bus.
A busker was in the square at H.B. and we listened to him for a bit before walking along the canal to the Blue Teapot at Mytholmroyd for a second Tea Cake.
A few packed buses got us near home and we walked the rest of the way arriving home at 5pm.
In Haworth a Raptor was high over the café (in among 2 Swift) as we had our lunch - Sparrowhawk?
The bird has a fork in the tail but I think this may be moulting feathers?
A Swift looked to be nesting in a building roof along Haworth Main Street and a House Martin was feeding young under a house near Cross Roads.
Evening:
The usual walk this evening up the local fields.
The Little Owl took ages to find preferring a tree in 'Ward's Views " garden.
Other birds (not many).
Pheasant, 4 Swallow, 1 Mistle Thrush, Greenfinch, 1 Meadow Pipit.
Wren, Black Headed Gull, Lesser Black-backed Gull.
I spent a good while scanning the lower fields for a returning "Wee Tear" but failed to find one.
A Fox (or maybe 2).
