LBBs now a common sight
Swifts about in good numbers
Another sticky hot day but a bit less sunshine with good grey skies early morning.
LBB gulls were again the bird of the day with a steady flow most of the day all moving W and NW.
Swifts were out in force feeding and moving in no particular direction with Swallows skimming low over the end of season mown pitches in Foxhill.
Pied Wagtail numbers are increasing in the area with 5 adult birds in the park at mid day and 3 >S over the garage early a.m.
A cracking male Sparrowhawk drifted slowly over the rugby field as I was walking home tonight and flew low over my head. Never thought about the camera in my pocket, just stood watching it with my mouth open, what a dope!

NOTE !!
No sightings of Roe Deer, Fox, Hare or Badger will be mentioned on this blog throughout the year and links will be removed from other blogs giving the whereabouts of these mammals due to the rising influx of poaching, long dogging and lamping by sick individuals.
