A big bonus was 3 Woodcock sightings in the plantation in the space of 15 minutes. 2 flushed as I walked through and 1 flew in from the res'r area giving fantastic views flying around me - at speed! Not sure if they were all different birds or just the same one!! Enjoyed it all the same, and a first in Calderdale this year for me just when I thought I was going to dip!

Good one Dave, bit of a bogey bird for me, Woodcock.
It has been for me this year as well Bri. Always a chance late in the year when the migrants come in.
always good to get woodcock away from the usual summer sites
the last i saw locally was in the woods below beacon hill a few years ago
