NK on his way back from Soil Hill.

A grey morning with slight mist looking good for movement but not to be.
A pre work visit to Old Guy Rd found the usual Meadow Pipits, Pied Wagtails and Starlings on the cricket pitch and a Wheatear and a Mistle Thrush on the wall.

A skim around Green Lane, Corporal Hill at lunch time produced a few small gulls and Lapwings, whilst a good flock of Greenfinch, Goldfinch and Linnet is beginning to build around the thistle tops in the horse field, Green Lane.
2 Kestrels were up together and 4 Pied Wagtails were on the muck heap at the top of Corporal Hill.
