A loop walk today out to Lollingdon and skirting Aston and back via the Lees.
Fairly quiet out there today although all the regulars heard or seen. Common Whitethroat, 1 Lesser Whitethroat, Blackcap, Chiffchaff, Yellowhammer, Corn Bunting and Reed Bunting, the odd one out at Lollingdon and 5-6 along the “reedy ditch and “Long ditch”, and both Sedge Warbler and Reed Warbler along the “Reedy ditch”.
Several Buzzard and Red Kite over the hill as usual and a Kestrel and Sparrowhawk nearby.
A couple of Yellow Wagtail and good numbers of Skylark. Swallows fairly widespread and several House Martin and Swift over the village.
