High Royd - 5th April

Dismal drizzly weather today. I tried High Royd S T W. It's about a mile west along the canal from Sowerby Bridge though viewing is restricted. Thought the weather might have been favourable for a few hirundines above the filter beds. Lots of construction work going on at the site so it was a bit disappointing. Not a sign of any Swallows or Martins. Carrion Crows - got to 72 they all spooked. 4 Grey Wagtails and 20+ Pied Wagtails along with a single Moorhen was the best I could do.

Several Chiffchaff singing out, was the only warbler.
Flyovers heading west 1 Grey Heron, 1 Cormorant and an adult Herring Gull
That was about it along with some of the usual species..
