3...this time

0730 - 0930 dull, overcast, cold SW f1-3

Feral Pigeons.....

....have taken to sitting near East Pit...

3 Pochard....well....yes...there were 3 Pochard....but today....arrival time...

Blackcap

2 males singing on site...excellent, though 3 days later than last year....and with at least 15 Chiffchaffs on my short walk all it needed was....Cettis Warbler....singing several times....quite feisty for him.

3 warblers....and I'm hoping for a 4th any day....

A Grey Heron has taken advantage of the area I cleared on the eastern side of West Pit so that viewing could continue from there......

...post with a view...

Also at West Pit, by the bridge.....Yellowhammer...


There has been a Kestrel pair on site, together, for some time now.....and I thought I had located their nest a few days ago....but today....3 Kestrels....quite a lot of calling, which the Jackdaws didn't like...then the female left the tree followed, after a few seconds, by the male...or should I say....a male....another few seconds and another male was airborne.

And....a view of a just about empty West Pit....
