Jay House Lane - This a.m.

2 min stop going to work:-

200+ Lapwings
6 Mistle Thrushes
4 Pied Wagtails
1 Kestrel
12+ Starlings
12 + Mipits (I think, any tips on confirming little brown bird types would be welcomed)

Then just out of our area 3 Cormorants over and 1 Heron.
I didn't think that was bad for a drive to work.

Are the Tree Sparrows there all year and where is the best place to look?

I think I need to have a look at Ringstone!! Can anyone use the hide?

I thought I had my Merlin this morning and it turned out to be Mistle Thrush in a dogfight with a Pied Wag!

The hide is locked so to gain access you will need a key, available for a small fee (to cover insurance) from Andy Cockroft
