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.

Never mind; 8 House Martin top of Deanstones Lane tonight at 2015 hrs.
They seem to have deserted the Russell Rd site this year unless you know different
remind me of my trainspotting days!
Forgot to mention on the Vis Mig this morning - but at a distance, I am sure there were around 50 Lapwings flying over the fields between Shelf and Queensbury. Are they flocking early up there? (or was I mistaken)!
You are not mistaken - 9 days back there were 110 in the usual field.
