Very little spare time today but lunch break was interesting over Foxhill with large feeding parties of Swifts over moving in front of the showers. This continued throughout the afternoon with empty skies then a rush of Swifts moving through as the black clouds followed by rain appeared.
Otherwise it was down to LBB gulls heading >NW and a group of 9 Canadas >NE over Foxhill at 0830 hrs spotted by Lynda was interesting.
