Hoghton Bottoms

Post by Mike Graham »

Lovely dog walk in the rain this morning!

Kingfisher on a pond (as seen twice last week).
Flock of 14 Goldfinch flying between trees by the same pond.
Barn Owl literally 5m away from me sat on a gate post, I surprised it and it flew over me at close range.
4 Yellow Wagtail at usual spot on River Darwen by the gorge.
Dead Kestrel by the roadside on Chapel Lane - I doubt it was hit by a car on this road.

I assume you mean Grey Wagtail, Mike?
