A hot and sunny day with a slight N>3 which is typical for a Monday after a dank and miserable day yesterday.
A few LBB gulls were heading over >W around midday and several juv Goldfinches were around Foxhill Park along with large numbers of young Blue Tits around the village.
A quick look at the Raggalds Flood tonight found Lapwings dispersing with 12 in and around the flood field along with 9 Woodpigeons, 4 Stock Doves and c40 juv Starlings. The water is now non existent.
