A Little Egret flew S/W over the watch point this morning.
Whilst this is my second record of the species, the first one was seen over the Cleckheaton area in 2003 which is out of our recording area.
However, today’s bird was in our recording area and can be counted which brings my species list to 134.
Goldfinch numbers are increasing as birds move south. Yesterday 95 were counted mainly moving to the S/W
