Several Lapwings were overhead at various times today heading towards the Pepper Hill flock so whether these are new birds increasing the flock numbers or birds from the flock out feeding remains to be seen.
A single Skylark over the garage late morning >S was an unusual sight and a customer rang today to ask if I knew about the Black Swan on Mixenden reservoir, which we did of course, but he said the swan was on Ogden late Sunday afternoon. A touch of exotica for the area.
