And still the winter is here. The question is how much longer?
Not much about in respect of the Oval a few LONG TAILED TIT''S and BLUES and the occasional CHAFFINCH and that is it except for WREN, GOLDCREST, BLACKBIRD,CROW ROOK, and a selection of GULLS. Mind you there was 5 MEW GULL at Links Hill car park. I also came across a new MAGPIE nest and it looks as if they are nesting or about to. Out at sea there is still a really big movement of RED-THROATED-DIVER with some in full adult plumage. Even the grey head and throat is in good shape. The occasional GANNET well out and a few CORMORANT. The best bird of the day was an adult male EIDER which was flying south and not to distant which makes a wonderful change. I also pulled in a lone seal cub which was floundering about. The only other thing picked up was a lone PIED WAG through the new caravans.
At the silo the female PEREGRINE was strutting her stuff again, in and out of the nest box.
