West of GM in Warrington, going from around 2018 seeing birds a few times a year (typically around Victoria Park, Walton Hall, Appleton Reservoirs) I am now seeing birds weekly in North Appleton (13 being the highest single group in an Orchard) / along the Bridgewater Canal to Lymm, Walton Hall Gardens and there were even groups down at Moore Nature reserve for a couple of weeks in Spring.

At 08.10 this morning a flock or chatter flew over me whilst I worked in Heaton Moor Stockport 30c heading towards Heaton Mersey Common. What a fabulous sight as they were in a tight formation as though on a mission, the wonders of nature.

Family of two adults and three young Ring-necked Parakeets flying around Liverpool Street in Salford. Repeated sightings each day for the past week. They favour the trees next to the Windsor way opposite Arnold clarks showrooms and along the rail track behind Hope Street but can be seen flying as far down as Oldfield road.
