Lowestoft Cemetery and Leathe's Ham

Bright day and car in for MOT, means a walk through to get some birding in for the day.
Home:  Had six MAGPIE in the garden CARRION CROW, DUNOCK, BLACKBIRD, WOODPIGEON, COLLARD DOVE, GREAT TIT, B;UE TIT, and a fly over SPARROW HAWK which has something odd with it's primaries on the right side. It was flying high with the gulls and enjoying there company and upsetting them.
Lowestoft Cemetery:  Best bird here was a spring migrant in the shape of a CHIFFCHAFF first one for the year for me which now brings in a total of 115 all self found except for the dickie. Also had one GREAT SPOTTED WOODPECKER did not show well so pic not worth seeing. But I also had a  GREEN WOODPECKER and 11 MAGPIE sorting themselves out in one tree. As usual the bird at the top had a very long tail. So I wonder who was the boss man. CHAFFINCH, WRERN ROBIN, BLACKBIRD, DUNOCK, GREENFINCH and CARRION CROW.
Leathe's Ham: The female POCHARD is still about and four DABCHICK look like they are getting ready to nest. TUFTED DUCK, PINTAIL, MALLARD MUTE SWAN and a female WIGEON make the rest of the crew.
