Home again.

If you wonder why no outside birding I am still suffering from a chest infection and on the third course of steroids.

Home:     It's been a few days since the MAGPIES took to building another nest. Progress looks slow but they are in most of the day with her watching while he works. Nothing new here then?
PEREGRINE are flying on most days with the male circling her as they flew over the house two days ago and her flying round above the house today. She was also on the silo feeding station later on in the day. 
PIED WAGTAIL fly over twice today with birds flying South West. No PARTRIDGE today but HARRY and SALLY have been fed well. HOUSE SPARROWS in on the table as were GREAT TIT and GREAT TIT. But there was also an odd fly over of three very high flying CARRION CROWS the local gull population were not happy. I also had one GOLDFINCH flying North East.
ASDA:   A pair of GOLDFINCH in fire trees in car park and a pair of PIED WAG on the little bit of rough land that is left. Three REDSHANK feeding at low water and HERRING, LESSER and GREAT BLACK BACKED GULL.
Ness Point:   A close hugging flock of BLACK HEADED GULLS about 20 birds in all close to the water and heading South with determination. I think they were on the move to there breeding ground by what they were doing.
       
Magpies are now at the second stag with the bower starting to climb on the right.
