26/11/20 Wharncliffe Woods/Heath NR (round walk)

Two spells birding in the Wharncliffe area today. A fantastic sunrise first thing with still conditions and views for miles to the east:

Then in the afternoon I did a circular walk into Wharncliffe Woods, past the nature reserve and back through farmland to Wharncliffe Reservoir
