Sparrowhawk
OystercatcherOld Moor is a RSPB reserve near Barnsley which has been developed over the past few years to develop excellent wetland habitats as well as viewing hides. It was a cold but dry day and the highlights included marvellous views of a female sparrowhawk sitting in a tree as well as a barn owl quartering the reeds. Other species included wigeon, Mediterranean gull, golden plover, oystercatcher as well as yellowhammer, tree sparrow and red-legged partridge.
