Spotted flycatcher, Moss Lane

I was going to give Moss Lane a miss today and went to Pennington Flash first thing instead. However, Ray's find of a spotted flycatcher had me rushing my lunch and heading off to St Helens. Not a bad drive at midday, just 21 minutes from home.

The bird was showing well in trees around the farm buildings in Moss Lane and occasionally flycatching. Also today, a magnificent hunting peregrine over the stubble field where the barnacle geese were on Monday and at least 60 swallows.
