A Queensbury evening

Queensbury underground Reservoir, Mountain.

The evening draws to a close. Towards Ovenden Moor from Mountain, QBY

A milder evening with the icy cold NE wind dropped, although snow is forecast for next week.
Swallows are starting to show more over the fields now and 2 Skylarks could be heard in the distance.
A single Curlew flew >W toward the moor and 4 LBB gulls headed >N.
A solitary Wheatear flittered about below the reservoir masts and 50 + Starlings were perched on the masts congregating before moving off towards Bradford to roost.
