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.

Raggalds Flood/ Soil Hill, late p.m.

                                        Plenty Wagtails around






                                            as well as Mipits.

A check of Raggalds Flood late afternoon on the way to Soil Hill found it wader less once again with even the Redshanks deserted. 3 Pied Wagtails were near the water along with
3 male Wheatear  on the wood pile to the rear of the field whilst Swallows were moving >N high overhead. Yesterdays 2 LRPs and RP seemed to have caused a bit of a stir with 2 birders cars and JL viewing the area.
                                                                      Thoughts of the Plovers moving to the northern base of the hill were dashed with just 3 Redshank down in the quarry ponds along with 4 Wheatear way down in the deepest part of the quarry.  Several Linnets were bathing in the Shay ponds whilst 7  Canada geese were newcomers to the Lapwing field along with 2 more Wheatear and a Curlew.
Swallows were also overhead at this location.
