A foggy start with rain but soon clearing leaving a cloudy but very mild day with temperatures rising.
Surely the reservoirs will be well on their way to a thaw now.
Has anyone else found a shortage of Common gulls this winter in their area. By this time of year the winter flock around Foxhill park and the rugby field is up in the 70s but recently we are down to 8 at the most. At the start of the winter the flock slowly started increasing as normal but as it got into the 20s the birds started to move away leaving us with very few.
About a dozen Black Headed are around which is normal but the Commons are gone.
Two Pied Wagtails were on the top pitch but no sign of the Meadow Pipit today, meanwhile the skies were quiet.
BS
