South Pennine specialities
Posted 25-11-2007 at 06:13 PM by ChrisJB
Took a windy walk on to the moors behind the White House pub on the A58 this afternoon. Was hoping to see Twite at the feeding station by White Holme Res'. Surprisingly I didn't see any. I was also hoping for possible Snow Buntings on Byron Edge, but was less surprised when I missed out on these too.
In fact birdlife was rather scant, with just a Raven overhead, a 'v' formation of 25 gulls, which was a mix of Greater Black Backed and Herring Gulls.
Across the valley, the first wind turbine is part erected on Scout Moor. Already a sight of ugliness. I doubt the Dotterel will stop off there now in early May
