Home, Somerlyton and Burgh St Peters, Church yar#;.

Home: Sat at the back of the house this am and watched as 17 MEADOW PIPIT flew South against a stiff breeze from the South West. There was also two small flocks of SAND MARTIN both of 4 birds. Around was also a CARRION CROW, 7 HERRING GULL came into feed and also a single LESSER BLACK BACKED GULL sat on his normal roof near his nest site.
Somerlyton Meadow Road:  Caught site of a NORTHERN WHEATEAR which was sitting atop swiss rolls of straw. As usual it flew when I was to close but managed a few shots in reasonable light. There was also a single JAY and 2 MAGPIES.
Burgh St Peters, Ziggeret Church: CHIFFCHAFF at the rear of the church yard and also a single SWALLOW flew through. A KESTREL sat beside the road on a low branch to oak tree and 14 LAPWING on a field just before the village. Many COMMON GULL the most seen this Autumn.
