Jumble Hole, 2:00pm

Quantity, rather than quality today.

- 16 siskin in an alder. Never seen more than 2 here
- 235 jackdaw was a higher than normal count
- 110 bh gulls loafing around the sewage works
- a single jay

There are loads of Jackdaws about Matt - perhaps a good breeding season last summer. A lot were heading over Ogden late afternoon -wonder if there is a roost of corvids just over Bradford side?

There's a huge corvid roost (mostly jackdaws) at this time of year at the bottom of Cragg Vale, near the caravan park. Last year there was around 1,000 as I drove past one day. If anyone is passing late afternoon it's quite a spectacle.
