The plantation turned up nothing at all though I went in looking fro Woodcock. It's a bog in there but some of the habitat has lots of potential - when the quads and off-roaders aren't in there !!!
Shibden Valley - Sunny Vale was productive on the lake but hardly any passerines anywhere. It's a welly job there too !
2 Little Grebe
2 Coot
c10 Moorhen
1 Grey Heron

Good to try a different location. Not been to sunny vale for years
Sunny vale is definately another welly job !
On Monday there were 4 Teal and 2 Cormorants at Sunny Vale,Dave and my first Green Woodpecker of the year,yaffling nearby. Plus a dozen Siskins further downstream.
Hi Mike. I usually get Teal there as well in the top corner. The Grey Heron was there so maybe it spooked them. I always look for Water Rail at the top end (just had one once)though plenty room for them to hide there !
