Queensbury Today

                               Dunnock still singing in the garden

                                   Up to 5 Goldfinch around now.

A milder calm day with a few dark clouds and specks of rain but temperatures up on yesterday.
A few LBB gulls headed >NE early morning whilst up to 5 Goldfinch are hanging around the feeders but still only 2 actually taking the seed . A near miss today when the Goldfinches were on the feeders and a Sparrowhawk zoomed into the Hawthorn bush but luckily the canes around the feeders worked making the sprawk fly over them and with Lynda banging on the window it went away hungry.
A passing visit to Raggalds flood tonight on the way back from Morrisons found it the same as NK reported this morning, deserted other than Swallows over the water and 5 Swifts >N but Im sure something else will be along shortly.
