Ringstone Reservoir - Monday

Another day, another lunchtime butty stop at Ringstone.  

This time I enjoyed a HUGE ham salad T cake from Barkisland P.O.

Not much new here today.

The water is gushing in from the SW channel now and the reservoir is quite full.

Not much shoreline on the south side and the North shoreline is fast disappearing. 

Birds:-

2 Wheatear.

1 Great Crested Grebe. 

C60 Gulls

1 BIG Lesser Black-backed Gull with "Grey-ish?" legs.

c50 Golden Plover.

c100 Lapwing.

A few Linnet and Meadow Pipit

An eyes and hair job this a.m in Halifax ..... where a look at Square Chapel revealed a Peregrine. 

Another look later on at the "white " chimney near. Matalan revealed a Peregrine also.
