No surprises

Fairly sunny but chilly, 7°, light E.

In Wallingford early this morning and walked back via the River/Winterbrook and Bunk line.

A Cormorant drying itself on a dead tree on the opposite bank but very little else on the river.

A quick check of the gravel pit revealed just 2 Little Grebe.

Further on 2 Chiffchaff, Kestrel and good numbers of Fieldfare and Redwing and c20 Yellowhammer, a few Meadow Pipit and several Skylark.

Alan out along the river with Water Rail and a flyover of c50 Golden Plover.

Later checking out the gravel pit with the Little Grebe still present and the Green Sandpiper again.

Mammals: Roe Deer.

I didn’t have my usual lens with me so had to make do with what I had.
