Weekend

Edge Lane, Colden, Saturday. Buzzard flew south. 5 fieldfare with c.150 starling. 2 red grouse were calling from the moor.

Jumble Hole, Sunday. Scanning with binoculars from the garden, I was pleased to see a common buzzard on a fence post in the distance. It eventually took off, being harassed by corvids. A total of 190 herring gulls flew NE in the morning. A goldcrest joined a tit flock on the feeders, though obviously looking around for invertebrates.
