NOTE !!
No sightings of Roe Deer, Fox, Hare or Badger will be mentioned on this blog throughout the year and links will be removed from other blogs giving the whereabouts of these mammals due to the rising influx of poaching, long dogging and lamping by sick individuals.

Corporal Hill watch point, pm.

                  A fly past by HM Coastguard
             View >S from Corporal Hill
                    View >SE towards Emley Moor
               View >SW towards Saddleworth Moor and Manchester.

Just time for a 20 minute sky watch from Corporal Hill this evening on the way to Shelf Moor on a calm warm evening with wall to wall blue skies.
Swifts were heading >S in good numbers along with several Swallows, once again all in migration mode, fast and direct although a few of the Swallows were tempted to try their luck feeding over the new mown fields.
Lesser Black Backed gulls were heading >NW up Shibden Valley joined by a few Black Headed.
Resident birds included Meadow Pipits, Pied Wagtails and Linnets as well as the usual pre roost corvids.
A report at work today of several Wheatears on the move over the moors near Nont Sarahs.
