Three days in the Peak and not very much to report in terms of birdlife. There was a pair of goosander on Kinder Reservoir and a single red grouse to be seen on the moor. Apart from that there were numerous meadow pippits.
Most noticeable by their absence were swallows. The previous week in both the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales I had seen these birds still very much in evidence, whilst back in Kent they were still very prevalent, so it begs the question: Why no swallow in the Peak District?
