green withens 1530-1800

my first visit since last monday, very windy and birdless.the 1 mile walk to res produced just meadow pipit and skylark.the res held 9 canada geese(most have gone to booth wood res)1 mallard and a drake teal.on the wader front 5 common sandpipers and 2 curlews.a juv stonechat in the clough below the east dam.
an unknown number of swifts went east very high up.
very quiet,not even a pied wagtail!!!

on sunday i fly out to grenada,so i expect lots will turn up!
at 137 the record is in sight!
