Sunday 4th June a.m.
A fairly bright morning with a temperature of 11°C as I headed for the Lake at Lister Park.There were 40 large Gulls here which usually only turn up in two and threes, they were mainly
LBB with some
Herring Gulls all of different ages.There were c85
Canadas and 20
Greylags with the usual
Tufted Ducks,Mallards,Moorhen and
Coots.Overhead were six
House Martins and a
Swift swooped several times over the water for a drink.
I went up to the stream which runs through the botanical gardens finding a
Collared Dove on top of a conifer which was the ousted by a
Jay.Others seen were
Mistle Thrush,Pied Wagtail,Robin and
Wren.
