Two Local Walks

This morning I did my usual jaunt through the farms to Ned Hill Road bottom and back again.

This afternoon I walked up from Holdsworth Schools through the fields, around Bradshaw Park to home.

This afternoon felt a tad warmer ( at times) but a lot of the fields around here are streaming with water.

I was rewarded by a few 'new' species to add to this years very meagre birding list.

Some Birds:

This Morning:

Little Owl, 2 Stock Doves, Mistle Thrush, 2 Bullfinch.

Plus the usual Gulls and Crow species.

(Fox -  Mobbed by a Common Gull). 

This Afternoon:

House Sparrow, Chaffinch, 3 Stock Dove, c10 Long Tailed Tit, 2 Greenfinch.

A Sparrowhawk whizzed through my bins as I was in Bradshaw Park scanning for a (not seen)  Little Owl.

 An enjoyable outing while the ladies were................................

"Down town where all the light are bright" Pet!

A bit of a 3 hour job this evening dropping the girls off at the various location.

But they seemed to enjoy the sleep over and nothing broken - that we know of.
