North Wirral CP, Leasowe

Stone Curlew 1
Grasshopper Warbler 1 reeling

The Stone Curlew was a great addition to my North West / Merseyside lists. It had been found at 17:45 in exactly the same field as the last Wirral record, 21 years ago! It stood motionless for long periods, but at last, at around 20:00, it started to feed and showed very well in the late evening sunlight.
