Garden and Local Fields

A cold 'mostly' dry day today.
'All day shopping' this a.m. well not all day just 'Aldi' but it seemed like all day.
After lunch I had an hour or so sky watch from the garden and after tea I had a (wet) walk up the local fields.

Garden:

2 Buzzards drifted West towards Ogden while at the same time 3 other Buzzards were over the Oats Royd / Roper Lane area.
6 Swallow were also seen.

Bradshaw Fields:

I wasn't expecting rain so when it arrived I had an awkward time keeping the camera dry.
Not a bad do though.

1 Lesser Black-backed Gull.
1 Common Gull.
Little Owl.

A Sparrowhawk zoomed past over the hill towards Koi Carp Copse,
Soon after calling Swallows alerted me to the same? Sparrowhawk that landed on a fence post - but not for long!

A Buzzard that was mobbed by crows, landed in a distant tree top.
2 Meadow Pipit.
Heron and a Kestrel also seen,
