A late afternoon visit to Holker Lane may explain why no Oystercatchers as there were an impressive 30 there with 1 Curlew and 5 Lapwing.

Also 30 Pied Wagtail on manured field but no obvious White amongst them. 1 Meadow Pipit too.

Had a good look through the c100 Starlings but nothing unusual.

Late afternoon on dog walking duties at Healey nab. Noted 15+ curlew, 4 lapwing in fields south of nab viewed from bridle path. 5 oystercatcher flying up and down anglezarke reservoir.
