Withens Clough. A good show of Stonechats around the site with family groups of 6, 4 and 2. They seem to have done well locally this year.
8 Swifts over towards Stoodley Pike along with 2 Kestrels and 60+ Swallows over the clough below the reservoir. 4 Wheatear nearby and a few Meadow Pipits, Grey Wagtail and c10 Pied Wagtails in the reservoir overflow.
