l went to Risley Moss today tempted by Pete Berry's posts about the Hobby.
Met some locals who informed me it'd been out but l'd arrived at 'the dead zone' cry.giftypical....(between 2.30 and 3.30) anyway l hung around and sure enough,out it camebiggrin.gif.(L)
A very impressive bird,soaring,hunting and just enjoying it's life,really lovely to see l'll definitely go back and watch it again.
Luv birding.......

Went today to see the Hobbies and saw two birds - fantastic - a lifer for me - could see them catching dragon flies.

Edit : Should say thanks Pete
