Thursday 3rd May a.m.
A sunny morning though a cool start at just 6°C as I set off on a walk away from the village to the North and heading back on the West side.I went to my first location where I picked up
Whitethroat, Blackcap, Willow Warbler, Chaffinch, Swallow, Pheasant and a distant
Raven.Heading up the track to the edge of the moorland the adjacent field held 15
Rooks and the same
Jackdaws.On the track here I saw
Linnet, Meadow Pipit ,Curlew, Lapwing, Sand Martin, Reed Bunting and a distant
Wheatear. I then headed back towards the village to a pond where there were
Mallards,
Canadas, Moorhen and overhead were c50
LBB Gulls with at least one
Herring Gull.With a long but enjoyable walk a good number of birds were seen and I was soon home for a well earned rest.
Nigel.
