Lancs mosslands

Marsh Harrier 1 male
Barn Owl 1
Wheatear 15
White Wagtail 2
Golden Plover 120


Many of the ditches were full of flowers, dominated by Lesser Celandine but also including Marsh Marigold.


Wood Anemone is an ancient woodland indicator species, so it seems a little odd to find it growing in a ditch on the mosslands, in amongst Lesser Celandine. There were lots of Brown Hares in evidence today.
