Cloudy, 23º, light SW.
A late and brief (60 mins) visit to the hill, a light shower passed through and it got quite breezy for a time.
No sign today of any Redstarts but around 15 Chiffchaff
counted and present on both sides of the hill.
A flock of 30 Corn Bunting, 10+ Linnet and several
Yellowhammer present, a couple of Common Whitethroat and a Blackcap seen and a
Hobby flew north over the hill.
Good numbers of Lesser Blackback Gull and Rooks in the
vicinity.
Given the weather there were not many butterflies around,
however a few were noted; Small Tort, Small White, 2 Large White, 1 Red
Admiral, 1 Speckled Wood, Meadow Brown and Peacock.
A lot of interesting insects around at the moment.
A Goldcrest passed through the garden this afternoon and a Grey Wagtail flew
over.
Pointing at the Hobby that just flew over and Loren got the shot.......just.
