Between the Rains

Sunny at first then clouding over, 7°, light SSE.

A frosty start to the day with -3° after a wet weekend then more rain due later.

Not a lot out there today. Winter Thrushes still widespread and a lot of Redwing around on a par with Fieldfare today also the odd Mistle Thrush.

2 Corn Bunting, a Sparrowhawk and a Kestrel on the hill and the odd Meadow Pipit and Skylark present.

A Little Egret seen on Cholsey Brook just south of the railway but flew off and not seen again.

A pair of Bullfinch in the Millennium Wood and 1-2 Jay present.

Mammals: 3 Roe Deer.

Potential “Hare coursers” seen between Lollingdon and Aston Tirrold so a call to the Police was in order!
