1 of 2 Sparrowhawk over the water
This Heron landed in the back of the pine tree
Several Swifts >NW
Fly Flatts had to be abandoned due to thick fog as was Queensbury when I set off so it was back down to Ogden where it was clear with early drizzle and light rain improving as the morning went on.
Just a quick glimpse of a Tree Pipit through the drizzle but no sign of the Crossbill flock.
Two Sparrowhawks were passing over the water regular and several LBB gulls headed >SW but no Terns.
2 Sparrowhawk
1 Heron

18 LBB gulls >SW
2 singing Blackcaps
4 Willow Warblers
1 Tree Pipit

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.
