    A shame about the lapwings, a long time has passed since I visited the reserve or anywhere else, I remember the numbers being really good there.

    Cromford Canal, Derbyshire

    Nice vole Steph. Not been up for the canal for a long while. The last two times we went we got good views towards the derwent hotel end, its the area where the canal widens and has all the reeds and then narrows under a bridge.

    Some more pics The bird in the set of 2 pics was photographed before the other one in question. Not sure if the bottom left bird in the set of 5 is the same bird. There were 3 males that I counted in the flock

    Thanks for having a look Steph, I have other pics which I will sort at as soon as I can. Jane mentioned sound on the id thread, I need to listen to calls for parrot and common to compare. Dad sends his best wishes too :t:

    Hopefully someone can see them, my experience of other crossbill sp is not that great, having only seen 2 barred crossbill for the first time this year. I can't get back up there this week. I might stick it in the id thread.

    Hi Daniel, thanks for the thoughts on the top right bird, it was the area you mention, just before you go down the hill which has got the steps. They also flew towards endsor church area as well. Since I took the pics off the camera and looking at this bird, I was intrigued by this one as it...

    No sign of spotted crake between 13:00 and 16:00, went back this evening and no sign by 20:00. Hopefully it will be hiding somewhere and be found again as I missed it! Very briefly saw a snipe, which I am pretty sure was a Jack Snipe flushed from the far side of the pool and it flew to just in...
