Has anybody seen this Witch's Broom on Hornbeam in Yorkshire apart from Harlow Carr? There is a 10km record from VC63 from the British Mycological Society data set from the Barnsley - Wakefield area shown on the NBN Gateway

Dipper and mystery falcon(?) in Huddersfield

Hi All,

  Just been surprised to see a dipper in the middle of Huddersfield, on the river at Aspley. I know they do turn up in the area, but is this a common sight here? I normally keep my eyes open going over the bridge because there's often a heron there, but this is the first time I've seen a dipper.

Arrivals

Chiffchaffs arrived in Brockadale last Friday, the 19th April, and several were singing this morning (26th). Paul Simmons
