Floods

Sunny spells, 9°, light WNW.

Well, very quiet out at Lollingdon today. One saving grace was the flooded field and peripheral field margins that were fairly active.

With 90 minutes of watching the area it produced 2 Lapwing, a Grey Heron, 63 Black-headed Gull, 3 Herring Gull, 2 Lesser Blackback Gull, 2 Common Gull and a Great Blackback Gull.

In areas closeby were several Pied Wagtail, Meadow Pipit and Skylark with several flocks of Fieldfare and Redwing moving thru the area, plus a Kestrel hunting nearby.

Alan out later along the Bunk: Lesser Blackback Gull, Herring Gull, Common Gull, Black-headed Gull, Kestrel, Sparrowhawk, Fieldfare, Redwing, Skylark, Reed Bunting and Yellowhammer.

Mammals: Brown Hare.
