6/10/2020 Late post for a sighting on Friday 2nd Oct
c40 Lapwing seen in flight close to the petrol station on Higginshaw Lane Oldham. In previous years sightings around here have been a bit further along the road towards Shaw so possibly using a different roof this year.
200+ Lapwings over Agecroft Commerce Park at 7.30am this morning - flock numbers swell in the winter, there are around 100 permanent residents on the site
