Wet and Windy

Overcast with light rain showers, 10°, breezy S.

Pretty quiet along the Bunk Line today.

6 Lapwing still present and 3 Stonechat inside the perimeter fence of CSW.

2 Herring Gull, 8 Lesser Blackback Gull and 100+ Black-headed Gull scattered around.

Several Yellowhammer, a single Reed Bunting and the usual flocks of Starling, Fieldfare and Redwing.

Tony Williams had a Barn Owl hunting there (Bunk line) mid-week and 4 Stonechat around Lollingdon Hill yesterday.

Another sighting of a Little Egret out near Lollingdon, again mid-week.

Alan was out by the river: 2 Stonechat, Teal, Reed Bunting, Treecreeper, a Chiffchaff, 2 Lapwing, the usual Fieldfare and Redwing and a Little Egret on the opposite bank and of course the pair of Blackcap in his garden.
