Dale airfield

First visit for a while, primarily with dragonflies in mind and I wasn't to be disappointed with two male Southern Migrant hawkers on the overgrown pond and at least one Ruddy darter

A flock of 200 starling had caught the eye of a young peregrine, 4 young Wheatear and 2 Curlew the only waders. There's a herd of about 20-30 cattle and a bull, all seem pretty docile, they were mostly around the water trough.
