Local Birding

27th-29th May three visits to Foulridge during the period yielded: 2 Dunlin, 5 Little
Ringed Plover (one excavating nest scrape), Turnstone and Arctic Tern.

I spent two evenings at a Long-Eared Owl site, where both adults and young were seen.
The adult birds had several "run-ins" with Carrion Crows that were determined to
steal voles/mice, brought in for the chicks.
