Queensbury Today

                                 We get some odd vehicles in our garage for M.O.T.

A wet drizzly day with occasional rain showers and cool SW>4.
Very little to report on today in the skies other than a steady flow of Woodpigeons >N but only in small flocks of up to 12 birds although this movement seemed to carry on most of the day.
A new garden feeder put up in a garden backing onto Foxhill Park full of sunflower seeds is attracting good numbers of Goldfinch, Chaffinch and Greenfinch, all of which are unusual to the area. Reports today from Calderbirds of Sand Martin and Willow Warbler is encouraging although the run of good weather over last week seems to have taken the brunt of the Wheatears straight over us to their breeding grounds.
