Forgetful Me

      Not been out with camera for a few days and was looking
      forward to going to Southport and Martinmere with
      the Huddersfield & Halifax RSPB but this thicky got the
      dates wrong, I thought it was next week but it was today
      so ended up having a gardenwatch instead and missed out
      on lots of Whooper Swans and another 50+ species and
      instead got Bullfinch a first for the garden this year, 2 Blue
      Tit, 2 Chaffinch, 1 Robin, 1 Dunnock, 3 Blackbird, 5 Goldfinch,
      and 2 Collared Doves making babies and the regular Corvids
      and Gulls.

      Lots of reports this week of Pink Footed Geese flying over
      and a Bean Goose among a flock of them, a murmuration of
      Starlings at Brighouse, a Raven at Cromwell Bottom, Waxwings
      still about in various places, Tawny Owl's have been busy
      at night around the local fields, a Buzzard was soaring above
      Claremount and Shibden a few days ago.
