The recent spell of wet weather may still be lurking but there was still plenty to see at Old Moor. Or just down the road where visitors to nearby Edderthorpe Flash are still reporting a spoonbill in the North West corner along with seven avocet.

Looking ahead to the weekend, the weather forecast for the Dearne Valley is all set to improve. Could be quite a pleasant one in fact and - as well as some much-needed sun - who knows what might turn up next.
Until next time.
We went for a late walk round Manvers Lake this afternoon. A tern, common tern I think, flew over towards OM, small fish in bill. Lots of swift, swallow and house martin over the lake.
