Bradshaw - Soil Hill - Again (Sat)

17:30 - 19:00

Another changeable day with sun, showers and wind.

Again, late afternoon the weather improved with sunshine but a cold feel to the day.

I had a walk along the local fields, through the farms up Ned Hill Road and over Soil Hill.

No north slope for me this evening - back via Taylor Lane.

No Wheatear either this evening.

(Some) Birds;-

5 Curlew. 2 Herring Gull. 1 Lesser Black-backed Gull. 

7 Skylark. Willow Warbler. 2 Meadow Pipit. 

5 Stock Dove.

2 Red Legged Partridge - both heard only.

(One Ned Hill Track. One bottom of Bradshaw Lane).

1 Fridge.

A wide bodied large Raptor high > S 'dived' down to somewhere beyond Soil Hill End Farm - not much of a description I know. If I took the bins off it I would not be able to find it in the viewfinder so I hoped it would come nearer instead it b.....ed off!
