Elland Gravel Pits




Not much about really, 12 Cormorants on Ski lake, 5 Bullfinch, 1 Reed Bunting, small numbers of Blue tit, Great tit, Long Tailed tit, 10 Goosander on the River and 1, possibly 2 Little Grebe and 1 very charming Robin.

You say not much about but 12 Cormorants is the largest count here ever.the previous highest was 11 flying over on 15th Jan 1997.Nice one.

To say I'm surprised is an under statement, I'm almost speechless - just goes to show the worth of reporting everything. Cheers for that Andy.

Not only the largest at EGP but Calderdale as well.Great record.what you need is the report 'Birdwatching at Cromwell Bottom'.its a great spot and definatly underwatched
