A dull day and approx. 4 hours spent along the Bunk line/Green lane area today and Tony W present for a time.
A lot of Gulls initially this morning fanning out on the farm land, mainly Black-headed Gull with several Lesser Blackback Gull.
A surprise of the day was a Ringed Plover that flew from the vicinity of the sewage works and headed north east.
A lot of Thrushes along Green lane with approx. 100 Redwing and 40-50 Fieldfare plus quite a few Blackbird and several Song Thrush.
The usual flock of c100 Meadow Pipit and several Yellowhammer and Reed Bunting present and several small Starling flock feeding in nearby fields.
2 Green Woodpecker also seen along with a couple of Chiffchaff (1 in song).
On the walk back, found another Stonechat!
A small flock of Siskin with Goldfinch feeding on Alder trees along the river. Per TW.
A single butterfly seen today and that was a Small White on the allotments.
