Macclesfield

My recent walk in the Cheshire countryside led me to some of my favourite spots. Clough Brook runs along beneath Macclesfield Forest and is a very good spot for Dippers and Grey Wagtails. I only managed to see one Dipper, but there were plenty of Grey Wags, with busy parents feeding their young.

This juvenile Grey Wagtail was sitting patiently while Mum and Dad were off looking for food nearby.



Grey Heron in the gloom.
A Robin looking a little dishevelled. It's probably had a busy time raising a family.

    I've never seen a robin look quite like that. I wonder if there are different varieties? Ours are much darker with larger, brighter belly markings.
