Sunny, 10°, light SW, a lot of overnight rain and clearing
around 11:00.
A first visit this year to the hill proved fruitful with a
male Merlin flying through carrying
prey.
A flock of c200 Fieldfare,
a few Redwing, 50+ Starling and a single Mistle Thrush on the hill and a scan of
the surrounding fields found a flock of 300+ Lapwing with good number of Gulls present.
12 Teal also noted
on a flood in one of the fields.
A few Skylark, Meadow Pipit and the usual flock of Linnet present and a Grey Wagtail still around.
2 Jay still around
the hill and a pair of Raven still
in the area.
