Gills Lap
- I finally succeeded in seeing the Great Grey Shrike this morning after three previous failed attempts. It was showing really well near its favourite dead tree in the valley below Gills Lap car park.
Old Lodge
I had to leave Gills Lap with the shrike still showing in order to meet up with Paul and the group at Old Lodge.- The highlight of this morning visit was undoubtedly the 4 Crossbills we saw near the end of our visit. We had seen them earlier but latterly they came really close and we were able to enjoy extended views.
- Other highlights included lots of Coal Tits and a Goldcrest.
A super morning and one that saw me go through 100 species for the new birding year!
