Monday 9th December a.m.
At last a bright sunny morning so I decided on a trip to Cromwell Bottom Nature Reserve near Elland where on arrival the temperature was 7°C. I had a walk along to the weir but only saw a couple of
Mallards on the River Calder, so I went to the bird feeding area. Here there were numerous
Blue Tits, Great Tits, Coal Tits, LT Tits, Bullfinch, Chaffinch and
Nuthatch. In addition there was a few
Reed Buntings, I had a spell here trying to get a decent picture of the
Coal Tits, they were a bit too quick for me most of the time but I didn't do too badly. A walk on to the canal gave me a view of the Ski Lake where I saw at least five
Goosanders and three
Cormorant, another
Coal Tit was in a tree and a
Treecreeper tempted me briefly to get a picture, but I was too slow again.
