Fly Catcher, North Dene's, Lowestoft.

Reasonably bright day with no wind and chilly.

Fly Catcher Alley: On arrival two JAY calling each other. One must have visited a nearby garden as it had an unopened peanut. Which it kept moving about trying to hide from prying eyes. MAPIE and WOOD PIGEON about with only one ROBIN and WREN  and two DUNOCK. The best bird along here was a single SONG THRUSH which was moving around feeding amongst the leaf litter. BLUE TIT, GREAT TIT and a noisy CROW. Gulls on Oval and moved on to. 
North Dene's: Again three ROBIN along this stretch and only one WREN. A small flock of LOG TAILED TIT and a KESTREL intent on feeding until it settled as can be seen from pic. One GREENFINCH on wild rose bush near Links car park and walk back gave reasonable views of a pair of STONECHAT. only flyover PIED WAG to add here. Out at see an adult GANNET with a black young one moving South. reversing direction a single GREAT CREASTED GREBE.  CORMORANT well out but only a few.

 This herring gull has a few tell tale signs of being just a H-G and nothing else. Close inspection shows streaking on the head, grey saddle and although a large bill, dark eye and seemingly long legs. It is a true form H-G.
