Queensbury Station

The cutting to the Holmfield tunnel

Looking up the Dailies

The old chimney

Road bridge under the Thornton line.

Just 1 hour to kill tonight near Clayton till I picked Lynda up so had a look down the old railway station which is almost unrecognizable now with the new bike track through the middle. Still plenty habitat for the warbler season but very quiet now with just the usual Blackbirds, Robins etc and a single Chiffchaff.
Shot back to the old favourite, Causeway Foot col for 15 mins to find the skies void of birds. The warm air and blue skies killed the area from last nights movers so tonight it was just down to a few Linnets and 2 Pied Wagtails.
