A day for not finding much at all. Apart from a small influx of Chiffchaff last week and a LRP at the gravel pit there has not been anything in the way of migrants yet!
Lollingdon was particularly quiet with very little on the hill, however the song of Skylark was always in the air.
Nearby a small flock of c40 Redwing and a couple of Fieldfare present and the Little Owl in its usual spot.
The walk also produced a singing Reed Bunting, several Yellowhammer and Chiffchaff.
Alan checked out Sill Bridge area and apart from several Corn Bunting, very little to speak of.
The gravel pit also quiet birdwise but noisy due to work going on there.
Mammals: Brown Hare and Roe Deer.
Butterflies: Brimstone, Comma and Peacock and a Small Tortoiseshell on the allotments yesterday.
