Hardcastle Crags/Crimsworth Dean

We went looking for summer migrants today but conditions were not ideal with a blustery wind, though there were some sheltered spots in the woodland.
Not a sign of any Redstarts, Pied or Spotted Flycatchers, Wood Warblers, Garden Warblers or Cuckoo.
c12 Swifts, c20 Willow Warblers and 1 Chiff-chaff along with Nuthatch's and a pair of Treecreepers.
2 Wheatears at Walshaw and that was about it except for a good number of Orange Tip butterflies
