Out and About

Cloudy, 22°, light WSW.

The hill is still very quiet with only a Kestrel present and a few Swallow moving through.

Earlier a loose flock of 42 House Martin were overhead, they then bunched up in to a tight flock, gained altitude and moved off high to the south west.

Off the hill in Lollingdon: the Spotted Flycatchers still present along with 10+ Chiffchaff, 2 Blackcap and several Common Whitethroat.

A Yellow Wagtail flew overhead, a couple of Jay, a single Raven and the (almost white) Buzzard seen for the first time in a while and a Little Owl heard calling.

A Grey Heron seen on the way back and several Yellowhammer and Reed Bunting.

Mammals: Stoat.

Dragonflies: Southern Hawker

Butterflies: Large White, Small White and Speckled Wood.
