Migration slowed

Sunny spells, 10°, breezy NW.

Migration appears to have slowed as a stiff north westerly wind sets in. still quite a few Swallow battling thru with 1 over Lollingdon Hill this morning, 5 feeding over CSW later and a couple more moving north along the Bunk line.

A reasonable passage of Swallow later in the day out at Lollingdon with 5-6 waves of 4-5 birds. (Per Alan).

2 Raven south over Lollingdon Hill and a Sparrowhawk and a Kestrel present.

The usual Yellowhammer, Reed Bunting and the occasional Meadow Pipit and Pied Wagtail around the Little Lollingdon area.

Generally quiet all round for summer migrants today but Chiffchaff still quite vocal in multiple spots.

2 Lapwing still present in the Bunk line area and a Sparrowhawk. (Per Alan).

A few butterflies on the wing in sheltered spots with both Peacock and Small Tortoiseshell.
