The Breeding Season

As from now until the end of the breeding season birds of a sensitive nature will be omitted from this blog due to a small percentage of undesirables who take their pleasure from egg collecting, nest destroying and the killing and trapping of birds.
Reports of non breeding birds moving through the area will still be published. BS

Mipits on the move

Ready for the roost

Foxhill trees getting that Autumnal look now

A better day today keeping dry but still with that cold >SW 4.
Meadow Pipits came over in good numbers first thing this morning all directly >S but this rush had dried up by the time the sun was up and the sky had gone blue just after 0800hrs
Approx 250 were counted just with casual observations from home and to and at work. Also 5 Skylarks came over the park heading >SW at 0715hrs.
Gull numbers were again well down with just 5 Commons and 3 Black Headed divided between the park and the rugby field.
A local Robin is in full song at work now and a Wren was in and out of the conifers.
