Presumably the same bird very noisily low over the garden mid afternoon & returning to Hall House woods Leigh late afternoon.

Wed Sep 7 10:28 PM, 2022
One heard in Leigh Cemetery mid afternoon & since its only about a quarter of a mile (as the crow flies) from Hall House Woods, I'm assuming it's the same bird from there as I haven't seen or heard it for over a week.

A nice quiet sunday afternoon in the garden was brought to an abrupt end with a tirade of squawking for about half an hour by the Ring-Necked Parakeet in Hall House Woods Leigh - still can't get a pic of it as it's very mobile & well camouflaged in the canopy.
Lez Fairclough said
Fri Aug 26 9:08 PM, 2022
Having not seen or heard the one nearby at Hall House Woods Leigh for nearly 3 weeks I assumed it had either moved on or been predated by the local Peregrines, but then after tea this evening it was heard & seen flying down the Bridgewater canal heading towards Hall House Bridge Leigh.
