Low Moor 9/12/17.

Steady one and half hours this aft. in bitterly cold weather. Always the chance of a top raptor in these conditions but not today. Still, more raptors than expected with 5 C Buzzards with 3 over midhope res. and 2 at thickwoods. Kestrels 4 and Sparrowhawk 1. Goldfinch 20, GS Pecker at feeding station, RL Partridge calling.
