A dinnertime dash on Swalesmoor was a disappointment with very little found.
6 Linnets and a Willow Warbler were near the old Starving Rascal pub along with a Grey Wagtail.
Around 70 small gulls were on the lower quarry site with about 100 Corvids.
A single Little Owl was in the distance near the ski slope but the skies were empty.
Old Guy Rd cricket pitch was having a trim so that was empty but several Mipits were in nearby fields.
Foxhill park held 4 Pied Wagtails , 3 Common gulls and 2 BH gulls but no sign of NKs Wheatears near Fleet Lane.
