Brighouse Canal Stroll

I enjoyed a walk with friends, along the canal from Brighouse to the Ski-Lake, past the lagoon and back.

Another dull, cool miserable type of day, improved when we sat down at the Golden Hind chippy for fish, salad and treacle sponge and custard.

A few birds did make an appearance but viewing the ski-lake from the canal is very, very limited with many trees in full leaf still.

(A short meander up the local fields late p.m. was disappointing).


Birds:

Walk:

Raven.

c20 Cormorant.

5 Goosander.

c20 Siskin that landed high in a tree by the canal side were very mobile.

I was hoping for a Redpoll in among but I think they are all Siskin.

Great Crested Grebe.

Heron. Jay.

2 Moorhen.

1 Mute Swan.

3 Pied Wagtail.

2 Grey Wagtail.
