Glovershaw, Baildon.
A much better day for watching migrants after a week of high pressure. A Wheatear was in the 'horse-field' along the Glen Road and another was feeding along the 12th fairway. A Whinchat appeared on a nearby wall and a Whitethroat flew into bushes by the running track. Two Kestrels were again in the area, one was sitting on a boundary wall until it was unceremoniously moved off and chased across the Golf Course by about 30 Jackdaws. A flock of Grey Partridge consisting of two adults and nine juveniles flew up from the meadow by Golcar Farm.
