Nice wake up call this morning by 100's of Whooper Swans
went outdoors with camera and another two flyovers by
60+ of them honking away, it was great sight though.
Went up to Soil Hill but very quiet apart from Pipits & Skylarks,
2 Grouse and 1 large Raptor but only caught sight of it as it dived
down the hillside, then went up to Fly Flatts but wished I'd have
gone to Mixenden Res on the way as there were hundreds of
Whoopers on the water, as soon as I got to Fly Flatts there was a
Buzzard soaring and hovering and then a fight near the water
between Greylags & Canada's the Greylags came off the best,
I then went for a stroll on the moors up there and seen 6 Curlew,
2 Wheatear and more Meadow Pipits and a Kestrel.

8 Chaffinch

2 Dunnock
2 Collared Dove
