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

Skylarks moving in

A bright morning and cloudy afternoon with very little breeze.
A quick pm 15 minute watch at Shelf Moor found several Skylarks moving over >NW with some settled in the fields. At least 6 Meadow Pipits were in the gorse bush field seeming to be fresh in.
A small flock of Canadas came over >SE possibly moving to a local roost and tonight hospital visiting at Bradford Royal Infirmary a Tawny Owl was calling in the grounds.
Will be popping out in the morning to get me a Wheatear !
