Wednesday - Thursday

Yes, it has been quiet pretty much all round

but Wednesday seemed to hit a new low across the Recording Area.

With nothing that would not be a repete from recent days

again we had to wander off piste to get at even the more common fare!

SONG THRUSH

 have certainly taken over the vocals with a noticeable influx while

 there were in fact

c3 

LITTLE EGRET

knocking about with one rather reluctant bird keeping clear of the lens.

Wildfowl were represented by no more than

TUFTED DUCK

WIGEON

and

GREYLAG GEESE

while Spring was trying to get sprung with the

BLACKTHORN

showing its white blossom before the leaf

the exact opposite for the already leaf bearing

HAWTHORN

along with loads of 

WILLOW CATKINS

while many of the resident birds are already underway it is thought

this little fella

BLUETIT

still has a lot more preening to do

before it looks like this!

Thursday also only fielded common fare but nonetheless a joy to behold!

At first glance it looked as if it was just down to the regular c4

 TUFTED DUCKs

but on closer inspection it was found to be a 
Record Breaking
c7, the highest count ever here.

 After an almost total winter absence one

 then 2

COMMON BUZZARD

 showed themselves within the

Solar Panel Compound

 GREENFICH

continue to be vocal while another new arrival?

 COLLARED DOVE

was found gracing the

Sewreage Works
Back to Buchan manana!
