The bird of the day for me was a gorgeous male Merlin seen skimming low and fast over the fields along the Bunk line before towering high over the church. On its passage it put up a few Meadow Pipit and Skylark but presumably not hunting.
A single Swallow and 2 House Martin battling thru the wind and several Chiffchaff still around and a couple of Jay.
Alan was along the river area with several Swallow and House Martin, plus Chiffchaff, Cetti’s Warbler, Goldcrest, Kingfisher and a Stonechat. Later along the Bunk line were 5 Grey Wagtail, 40’ish House Martin and several Swallow.
