Local Fields

Abi with us today and the bit of my garden sky watch this morning was... whatever!

I had an early afternoon birding  walk along the local fields.

Cool and drafty but not a bad outing given that I only cross 3 fields!

On our way back from dropping Abi at Wakefield the heavens opened and there was some unusual cloud formations.

At the roundabout, before the Odsal Top one, a Buzzard was being mobbed by crows.

Birds:-

4 Blackbird. House Sparrow. Chaffinch. Woodpigeon.

C10 Common Gull. 2 Black Headed Gull. 6 Lesser Black-backed Gull.

2 Little Owl (at least). Green Woodpecker.

At least 2 Stonechat distant (possibly 4 - could not see 4 together though).

Kestrel mobbed by 3 Jackdaw.

Mistle Thrush. 2 Meadow Pipit.

Singing Chiffchaff.

Wren. Dunnock. 

Greenfinch heard from the garden later.
