2 male Yellowhammers; 100+ Woodpigeons; Whitethroat taking food into hedgerow;
2 Little Owls - hardly any spotting or streaking on head and front - possibly juvs;

Was the Little Owl at Bradley Hall within our recording area Mike? If so could you please let me know location in a little more detail? Thanks
You seem to be getting some good records from up that area Mike. Pleased the Yellowhammers are still around. Wonder if Corn Bunting is a possibility up there?!
Yes Jeff,both sites are just within our area:
Kirklees hall estate -stone wall/barn just West of the Kirklees Way by Nun Brook.
Bradley Hall - barn next to railway line, and just North of the entry into waste site at Bradley Park (not the renovated Bradley Hall Farm).
