Lapwings pairing up
An icy cold WNW>5 and early showers kept things down a bit but Leeshaw was buzzing with common stuff both on and around the water.
Wheatears were showing at Fly Flatts and Withins Gap whilst BV reported 9 on Trough Lane.
A brief sighting of a pair of Stonechat was a bonus thanks to Brian Vickers who,d had them a few days previous but they kept down in the moor due to the cold wind.
