18th Aug - cloudy, light breeze west, 22C

Willey; first thing a Wheatear in the top field around a cattle feeding ring, still there at 1600h.

Cotesbach Landfill; a look here produced 7 Red Kite feeding and a single Green Sandpiper of note. A Red Admiral was sunning itself.

Bittesby; this farmland can produce chats and more Wheatear, so a walk here seemed a good idea, but none were found.  6 Yellowhammers, a female Reed Bunting, a few Linnets and Great-spotted Woodpecker, Chiffchaff, Willow Warbler and Blackcap were all noted.  On the stubble fields plenty of Rooks and Jackdaws feeding, along with 10+ Stock Doves.
