juv LBB bomber
Mallard leaving the lagoons
TMR early evening visit Permit holders only. Windy Corner.
Still a strong W wind blowing and showers with broken cloud.
Gull count low tonights with c 100 LBBs and c 60 BHGs with no Common or Herring.
The lagoons held 1 Mallard until it left for the moor whilst Meadow Pipit numbers keep rising.
The highlight of the hours watch was a extremely noisy plane over up in the clouds and lifting all the gulls and as it finally appeared to the SE of me I was gob smacked to see a Vulcan Bomber which I believe there is only 1 flier left.
Quiet on the birds but good to have my own air show.
On the worrying side a Pheasant flushed in front of me with 2 very young chicks running on behind, lets hope it keeps its head down tomorrow or the chicks will have a problem.

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.
