Soil Hill - my second blog tonight - wow I hear you say!!

I had a late evening, tiring, walk up to and over Soil Hill today.

Really nice and sunny and a bit of a breeze was welcome.

The usual birds for here, but it was good too hear and see a Grasshopper Warbler .

It was away to quick to get it's mugshot alas.

More digger work on the very top with lots of grass 'turned over' and smaller bushes and trees removed.

Birds:

2 Swallow , 1 Swift.

4 Willow Warbler.

Grasshopper Warbler.

3 Whitethroat.

5 Skylark.

6 Stock Dove.

6 Linnet.

Moorhen.

Kestrel seen - dropped down onto a mown field and picked up prey.

Flew off with prey towards Queensbury - after a short 'nibble at it.
