Re: Curry Moor

The two whoopers were still there today, about 300m west of hook bridge. Flocks (about 30 birds) of wigeon and teal, were briefly put up by a microlite overhead. Also raven, buzzard, stonechat, 1000+ lapwing, and lots of ground-feeding redwing and fieldfares mixed in with starlings.
