Four hours out along the Bunk Line area today with the highlight being a Turtle Dove. It flew from behind me and landed briefly on some wires but before I could get the camera on it, it flew off and disappeared over CSW.
100+ Hirundines noted, all generally moving south, mainly House Martin with 30’ish Swallow and 8 Swift.
Also, Peregrine Falcon, 2 Kestrel, a Sparrowhawk, 2 Raven, 7 Green Woodpecker, 2 Yellow Wagtail, 5 Common Whitethroat, 1 Lesser Whitethroat, 3 Blackcap, 1 Willow Warbler and c 20 Chiffchaff.
Dragonflies: Banded Demoiselle, Common Blue Damselfly, Brown Hawker and Common Darter.
Butterflies: Large White, Small White, Common Blue, Red Admiral, Peacock, Gatekeeper and Meadow Brown.
