A bright and less windy day, a window before the next weather front appears.
The Dailies was very active at lunch time with the usual resident birds all busy collecting food for their young but the sky was quiet apart from a steady flow of LBB gulls slowly drifting >W. Swallows were skimming the hawthorns and 2 House Martins were near the tunnel entrance, breeding in the tunnel used to be an every year event but not any more.

9 LBB gulls >W

A good list for a lunchtime jaunt there Bri. Bet you love going back to work after that !
Good to see the old heavyweight bruiser Crow again. Which reminds me, the Mixenden White was showing well today.
Thats right Dave can,t get back to work quick enough, much better than watching waders at Fly, if only I could believe myself.
Havent seen the Mixenden white crow for a while Nigel, the Qby one either.
I thought the Mixi white had died Nigel as not seen it for ages. Glad its still there.
Had a couple of House Spaggers on my little jaunt there 2 wks ago. Tell thee what, with all the new hawthorn growth darn theer, winter sledging is knacked. Egg & Spoon an`t Humty Dumty have disappeared, not to mention the Wall of Death. Ahhhh well !!!!!
