Magpie in the
garden feeding on the suet balls, first time they have visited and not been
hassled by the pair of Carrion Crows
that have their territory here. I can’t say for certain but I think the male
Crow is new (judging by certain behaviours I’ve noted and assuming the male was
the aggressor) and may not be as aggressive or territorial as the other one and
therefore tolerates other corvids at the moment.
Stayed in for most of the day due to work being done at home
but managed another brief visit to Lollingdon hill, unfortunately very quiet. A
single Fieldfare, two Song Thrush was all that I noted on the
hill. Eighteen Lapwing flew over
heading north and a lot of movement of corvids (Crow, Rook & Jackdaw) backwards and forwards and a flock of around
fifty Black-headed Gull seen
thermalling then flew east.
