A Firecrest has been reported regularly outside the water treatment works gates in Walton-le-Dale and so because it had stayed around I thought there would be a good chance of seeing it. Unfortunately I couldn't find it although someone else did see it whilst I was there, and it has been reported since.
However, there were several Goldcrests and Chiffchaffs around as well as other common woodland birds. So, because I managed to get my best ever photos of a Goldcrest today, the trip wasn't totally wasted after all.
