Terrible conditions on the hill this p.m. with a strong E>5-6 and although the sky was blue visibility was limited with a low haze along the horizon 360 deg.
A new record was set today with one hour on the hill and not a bird recorded, the hill was deserted, as was the NK pond and fields as well as the sky.
Trudged around in search of birds today geared up with camera, bins and scope and the bird of the day were 8 Brambling in Sainsburys car park when we called there shopping this afternoon. Oh well, theres always next weekend.

Nice one with the Brambling Bri - I dipped on them this afternoon - looks good for the Waxwings there if the incoming thrushes leave some (?)!
Hunter hill was just as dead as Soil Hill this afternoon - 1 alba wag over and that was it! wonder if Oxenhope got some stuff today?
