Of recent I added a new tick to the home list with a CUCKOO. It was flying at 60ft and North. Immediate impression was it was a sparrowhawk but with a second look with bins it was a CUCKOO. That day was also odd as it has been several years since I had MALLARD from the garden, three birds on a mating chase along Denmark Rd. I also picked up on five SWIFT on there arrival over he house. On Sunday morning I walked out of the back door to find a squirrel sitting looking at me. Not for long as it bounded away. Missed a raptor fly by, shew signs of being a buzzard.
Pathways on Monday brought in several birds including a RED KITE which flew through, also a SPARROEHAWK male flew through. BLACKCAP, CHIFFCHAFF, WHITETHROAT,
A ride round SOTTERLY brought me a good view of a PIED FLYCATCHER which was flittering between trees and a good view as it flew into nearby tree.
