Shibden (upper valley)

One 'Nordic' Jackdaw with a flock of c50 Jackdaws at Grid Ref SE103282 - In the field 50m up Green Lane from the junction with Paddock Road and Addersgate Lane. This loooks as if it could be Andy's bird from Northowram as he has not seen it for a few days. This site near Shibden Head is just a mile and a half N/W 'as the Jackdaw flies' from Andy's site. Also with it are at least two birds showing a very faint pale grey collar as also seen at Northowram. Looks like this is the same flock moving around (?)

Other birds in the upper valley
1 Sparrowhawk
2 Kestrel
1 Great-spotted Woodpecker
1 Redwing
6 Mistle Thrush
7 Fieldfare
7 Jays together (could have been mobbing a Tawny Owl in a big Leyland Cypress)
c180 Lapwing and c100 Starlings away over the fields towards Corporal Lane looked like they got spooked by a raptor and took a while to settle? (No Golden plover seen)
