Foxhill park midday was alive with juv Starlings along with the parent birds probing the grass for food.
Around 80 were present, very noisy and mobile into the nearby trees. Strange how they all seem to come out on the same day in one big rush. It won,t be long now before they start on the second brood.
Swifts were piling overhead at lunch time all >N in the cold W>5 bringing sunshine and showers whereas Swallows are rarely showing at the moment.
A report today of 2 Woodcock down the old station near to the cycle track along with a good number of singing Willow Warblers. No signs of the wandering Canadas today.
