Hardcastle Crags

Up and down dale today, scrambling through woodlands in search of Wood Warbler, Flycatchers, Redstart etc - nothing doing! Really hard work finding anything - Just 1 Chiff-chaff, 1 Blackcap and 3 Willow Warblers singing. Pairs of Tawny Owl, Green Woodpecker and Great-spotted Woodpecker located. 2 Siskin flyovers, 1 Sparrowhawk,, 1 Kestrel and a number of Swifts, Swallows and a few House Martins feeding high over the crags car park.
