HALEWOOD AND HOUGH GREEN WALK #LOCALBIGYEAR

I spent this morning walking around the fields between Halewood and Hough Green. A good number of farmland birds were seen, including 2 Corn Bunting,12 Grey Partridge and 10+ Yellowhammer.



A good morning's birding and great to see 2 Corn buntings which showed briefly on the wires and then in a hedgerow. Moving on from here and back over the Mersey, I managed to find the gulls feeding around Mollington near Chester, a 2nd winter Mediterranean Gull was soon picked up out of the Black headed gulls.

Two more birds that I needed for my 15-mile radius on the list, Corn bunting and Mediterranean gull!#LOCALBIGYEAR
