Hi Christian, This sounds like Red Moss, Horwich. It is a nature reserve and has its own thread. Steve

Hello Manchester Birding Forum!
I've got a question about patch of land that some of you may know about.
Recently, I was driving down the M61 towards Manchester and just before you get to the junction for The Reebok Stadium I noticed a huge patch of rough and long grass meadow.
It looks like a fantastic location for Barn and Short Eared Owls. Does anybody know about the location and whether there are indeed owls present?
I'm a massive owl fan you see and enjoy photographing them.
