Writing Prize 2015

Halifax Scientific Society is offering a new field guide of your choice as a prize in a competition for a piece of constructive writing about local Wildlife and the Natural environment.

See their blog on Calderdale-wildlife.blogspot.com.

Walk yesterday: Not a lot to be seen or heard in the cold wind, but we did see
a Brown Hare on the Midgley Moor/ Luddenden Dean edge,

a Little Owl enter a hole in a stone wall no doubt where its nest was (picked up pellets outside the hole - this pair feeds on small mammals)

and while watching a Sparrowhawk on a post at Old Town witnessed it streak past us into a paddock; the small birds scattering in panic.
