Brynberian Moor

Another look a little further east of the previous visits turned up another Whinchat who popped up and took objection to a cuckoo I was watching, at least 2 male cuckoo and a female, with cuckooing, and excitable gawking, ever present - won't be too long before they depart for another year, so nice to make the most of them while we are fortunate to have them around. 6m and a female Reed bunting - often in the same areas favoured by Whinchat here, so can be a useful pointer. A few Lesser redpoll, buzzing around and moving between the taller gorse patches.
