Just getting ready in the back garden to go for a walk to Shibden and a wader call was herd , then again very close just over the house, I did not see it but Julia did. I was sure it was a Grey Plover on call alone , listening to calls on tinterweb could not put it down to anything else.
Then off to Shibden Head via Shelf trailer park , 40 + Lapwings and 20 Linnet in the field and up to 20 Gulls on the way to Shibden Head , 10 LBBGulls , 2 Common and 8 BHgulls , might be worth keeping an eye on this. The sky was full of House Martins all over Shibden Valley at least 70 + , a flock of Blue and Long tailed tits held 2 Willow Warblers,.Bare head tunnel had 2 Herald moths but no Tissue moths which was the target.
12 Mistle Thrush , Jay , Great Spotted and Green Woodpeckers and 1 male Kestrel......

Great record. Think I recall 2 separate flyovers on vis mig over the years on Hunter Hill. Think HC and DB also get the occasional autumn ones at TMR and did Bri have a flyover one on Soil Hill a couple of years or so ago?
Must have a go at the tunnel sometime. Not checked it this year yet.
