Brookie's Diary

• Friday, October 30, 2009 - Old Moor RSPB

Once again out to Old Moor but this time it was quieter at Wath Ings hide as we settled in to view the birds these included Green Sandpiper (5), Ruff (2), Redshank (2) hundreds of Golden Plover and Lapwing. The wildfowl numbers are also building up nicely with Teal and Wigeon being the numerous Gadwall and mallard in supporting roles, other birds about Grey Heron, Grey Wagtail, Pied Wagtail, Common Gull and Black Headed Gull. With reports of Kingfisher at the Family hide giving good close views we decided on a move there we had to wait for 15 minutes but the bird preformed well giving excellent views as it settled on to the branch provided near the hide. Other birds we saw here Great Crested Grebe, Little Grebe, Mute Swan, Canada Goose, Cormorant, Shoveler, Linnet, Goldfinch

With hopefully showing my results in digiscoping. Set up I am now using as from 2009 is the Nikon Spotting Scope RAIII 82 WP along with the Nikon Coolpix P5100 camera
