Ingleborough from Soil Hill
Lapwings moving around the fields
Still a few Meadow Pipits. Well it was taken at last light !
Soil Hill 1500-1600hrs. Very calm and cloudy with good visibility.
Nice to bump into DJS up on the hill to exchange a bit of banter breaking the boredom of few birds.
A small flock of around 8 Meadow Pipits were feeding on the summit whilst 2 flocks of Lapwing, 42 and 23 , were flying around from field to field.
Black Headed, Common and Lesser Black Backed gulls were piling into the Oxenhope roost and a single Herring gull went >W.
Small squadrons of Starlings were heading for Bradford whilst 3 Mallard came over from the east dropping down near Wilsden.
Hopefully the cold spell promised for the end of the week will bring some Snow Buntings our way.

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.
