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.

Ringby Top Skywatch, pm.

                                        Charms of Goldfinch

                                          A good year for juvs
                                             Wheatears moving through

                                              Spot the Wheatear
                                       Several in the fields
                                           Corvid v Sparrowhawk.


Two hours late afternoon sky watching from Ringby Top found no moving birds apart from 2 Goose sp. probably Pinkies but way out over Huddersfield >W.
The top itself was buzzing with several large flocks of Goldfinch, Linnets and Meadow Pipits along with at least 8 Wheatear plus the usual corvids plus a Sparrowhawk and 2 Kestrels.
The banking of wild flowers that was used by several Linnets and a Whinchat has now been bulldozed into a soil bank but there is still ample feeding areas up there.
No sign of vis mig over the village this a.m.
