Midgley feeding station

36 twite here this afternoon including at least 16 colour ringed birds, combos have been sent to the ringers. Earlier this week Dave and Jennifer Sutcliffe and I attended the feedback meeting for those involved in the Recovery Project's preliminary survey of breeding twite in the South Pennines, best estimate is that there are now only 100 pairs of twite left breeding in the S Pennines. As our area accounted for around 30 of these the importance of Calderdale to this threatened species cannot be over emphasised.
