Thanks Nick, keep us posted as to what happens, those of us who are a bit long in the tooth remember when Nuthatch didn't occur in Calderdale except as a very rare visitor.

Thanks for that comment Nick! I forgot you are nearly as old as me.

Do you remember the first (?) breeding of stonechats and what a fuss that caused? now look at 'em, everywhere!
