Roller at Crimsworth Dean
skip to main |
skip to sidebar
Roller at Crimsworth Dean this evening. Phone scoped across the valley. Best bet is to park in the Hardcastle Crags car park and walk up the track up Crimsworth Dean until you come to the end of the trees, then view in to the valley to the left of the house. The bird was mostly in the bottom of the valley on wires or sat on walls. It also spent some time on the west side high up on wires but always returned to the bottom. Do not take the track to Gibson Mill you will be going the wrong way. Incredible 3rd record for Calderdale 1824, 1844 and now 2019.
Copies are available at £6.00 each from the GO local store at Woodlesford, Pellon price . Hopefully they will also be available at the Fox and Goose Hebden Bridge ,

Great find Richard.
Magic bird to find - nice one.

Just had a thought, I think Roller is a British Birds Rarity description bird. This means a detailed description of the sighting must be submitted to the committee for acceptance. This is usually done by the finder or identifier of the bird. If Richard isn't up to doing one then one of the other observers would have to put one in, any takers?????
317 accepted records of Roller in the UK and the first in Yorkshire since 2012!,Its up to Richard Raynor to do the description if needed , he is going to the Fox and Goose tomorrow , can have a word with him then...He should be able to fill in the form online....
