Birds remain only targets of opportunity for me so there will be relatively few in number, although with time, the list has now grown to over fifty. I own up now there are some poor images but they are nevertheless good enough to establish having identified the species in the Goyt Valley (or thereabouts) area.

An asterisk indicates the page contains one or more images of the species which was actually photographed by me in the Goyt Valley. Other images all from adjacent Thereabouts areas have a 15px green dot against the image reference - I am making limited PDF images available as downloads in standard 10 x 8 frame format. The first is on the Wheatear page. Others can be created.
