Hi Dave

I was over at Mitchell's House this morning, bumping in to Sarfraz & Paul, who were there when I arrived. Can't add much to your post but of note were the following

  • herring gull - c 80, with birds coming and going all the time
  • lesser black-backed gull - a few at the res
  • common gull - c30 on the res, 10 in a field near Stonefold & a flock of c40 over Stonefold, which were probably all different birds to those seen earlier at the res
  • black-headed gull - c60 at the res
  • kestrel - 1 at the res and at least 5 between the res & Duckworth Clough
  • buzzard - Paul & Sarfraz had 2 on fenceposts near Stonefold
  • stonechat - we had a male on Black Moss, so possibly a different bird to yours
  • mistle thrush - 1 at the res
  • redwing - 11 near Stonefold
  • starling - 12 at Stonefold (min 200 seen later at Gregory Fold/ Broadway, Helmshore later)
  • house sparrow - min 20 at Stonefold
  • reed bunting -  male and a calling bird near the res

cheers Kevin
