A good dooo........................

Went to Bare Head Tunnel to have a look for some Herald Moths and found 25 (a local record)and 5 Peacock Butterflies hibernating  in the nooks and crannies, A flock of 40+ finches flew over and landed in the tops of some Larch,21 Greenfinch,10 Chaffinch, 10 Goldfinch and 2 Bullfinch. Then went to shelf moor ,last time I went there was 1 Snipe and it was pi**ing it down. Today there were 43 Snipe another great local record. Then off round my local fields 2 Great spots and a reed bunt...a good doooo....................
