saw a kestrel on the way home today having a go at the swallows. we call him kevin if your wondering.
in addition to this we also had a sparrowahwk in our garden my first pics comin up (the sparrowhawk dosent have a name) he occasional comes to my garden but today stalked in the bush and stayed for about 20 mins. he didnt catch anything although he tried. the reason i dont take many pics is because i only have a digi camera and no scopes (might get a few through binoculars though)

We must be careful discussing nesting on the blog as many species, even commoner ones, are under very real threat from eggers. We know for a fact that egg collecters are active in Calderdale. It's fair to say that the species you would expect to breed in that sort of habitat have a strong chance of doing so. I'm sure one of the Soil Hill regulars could let you know more away from the blog if you want.
oops sorry forgot wont happen again
