Dave,

Birds very scarce today.

Wheatear 1 Nab Water Lane
Wheatear 3 Fly Flatts Res
Wheatear 0 Trough Lane

Members only watchpoint:
4 Ringed Plovers logged by KM at 0930hr still present when I arrived at 1300, then at 1400 an adult Peregrine flew low over the Res going like a train and put up the waders which departed high NW. The Peregrine then sat on a stone opposite the hide it had a dark coloured ring on its right leg and appeared to be an adult male. It departed at 1435hr. Very few gulls max 50 BH gulls 30 LBBG’s.


Paul Clough:
No noticable movement today 2 Willow Warblers, 2 Bullfinch, 1 Sparrowhawk.


Brian.
