Sun 16th Broomhead Moor.
A decent list today .. Peregrine x1, common buzzard x6, red kite x1 seen at 1:50 circling over Upper Commons, kestrel x2, sparrowhawk x1, raven x2, ring ouzel x2, linnet, flock of 12 plus plenty of singles, cuckoo x1, lesser black-backed gull x1, golden plover x2, snipe x1. Plenty of irate adult curlews would indicate that there are quite a few juveniles around the area along with juv mipits and red grouse broods too..
