Brookfoot LNR / Local Fields

I had a run down to Brookfoot, Brighouse late morning.

A fair stroll around the river and canal on a very pleasant day did not reveal anything exceptional.

Hot afternoons are probably the worst time to go birding , but when that's what's on offer it's better than sitting in the garden.
