We called in for a look at Elland GP this afternoon with Nick D following a mid afternoon search at Mirfield - Sand Lane GP where a 3rd year Ring-billed Gull has been over at least the last 3 days. We missed out, though we hear it did turn up 20 mins after we left the site! This is only about 2 miles from our recording area so there is a chance of a new bird for Calderdale if it drifts up the valley towards Brighouse/Elland!

where is sand lane gp,???
If you go through Mirfield towards Dewsbury there is a pub called the Ship on the right hand side. Turn left over the bridge (traffic lights controlling one -way). Once over the bridge you can either park up in the pub car park or go along the road and take the first left turn in between the two lakes.
