Im getting to think that Thruscross is best on a Northerley- as one would expect but that Scar House res (which is more of a hike unfortunately), is the place to go on more Westerly winds- as you might expect.

SWALLOWS 05-04-2009

Hey up lads,

Just for the record, two Swallows passed over my house at 19.05 hrs this evening, heading SE.

Also circa 70 Golden Plover near Penistone Hill same time.
