Wader Success

While some parts of the country have been suffering from drought here in the Pennines we had plenty of heavy showers in May and the moors were in perfect condition for breeding Waders. Lapwings in particular were very successful along with some Redshank and Curlews.It was only when the moors dried out in July that Dunlin and Snipe began to suffer but even so I still managed some photos in-between long sessions on Long Eared and Short Eared Owls – to follow later!! www.facebook.com/gordonyateswildlife
