The Breeding Season

As from now until the end of the breeding season birds of a sensitive nature will be omitted from this blog due to a small percentage of undesirables who take their pleasure from egg collecting, nest destroying and the killing and trapping of birds.
Reports of non breeding birds moving through the area will still be published. BS

Fly Flatts

Canadas back on the moor
Red Grouse in breeding plumage
Rain heading my way

Fly Flatts 0800-0930hrs

A rapidly deteriorating morning from bright and breezy to near gale force SW>6 and driving rain by 0900hrs then fogged out, just normal sunday morning stuff.
The moor is back in full swing not with Curlews established along with Meadow Pipits and a single Redshank. Couldnt find a Wheatear but there again it took me all my time to find the footpath on the walk back in the horizontal drizzle.

19 Canadas
11 Curlew
1 Redshank
4 Red Grouse
Sev Mipits
