Another wonderful morning with totally open sky albeit after really heavy snow in the late hours of the night! The snow band moving down the eastern side of the Pennines did not deposit any at the watchpoint or to the west of it. Becoming quite warm late morning and over lunch. Skylarks and Pinks on the move again but to a much lesser extent than yesterday... agree in total Mavis that our Skylarks also moving from very early doors.... Pinks however were later today with the first not until 1140hr.
