A bright warm day but still a strong wind which had veered WNW>4 midday.
A Sparrowhawk visited the front garden today whilst I was at work but unfortunately Lynda chased it away from her sparrows instead of going for her camera. See Andys Northowram blog for some good garden Sparrowhawk pics.
Common gulls had increased to 5 in Foxhill park midday along with 2 Linnets on the top pitch.
Up to 100 gulls past the house >NE each evening at last light heading in the direction of Chelker reservoir.
