Local fields

A walk round the local fields today produced 10 Goldfinch , 23 Starling , 70 Jackdaw , 14 Rook, 20 Carrion Crow , 2 Magpie , 6 Blackbirds , 30 Common Gull , 15 BH Gull , 2 Herring Gulls headed west and the highlight of the day 3 Common Buzzards displaying in the valley. Some other good news were 2 Little Owls near a former nest site that was turned in to a house..

Good news on the buzzards - not seen any up the valley for a few weeks so was wondering if they were still about - perhaps they've moved further down for a spell. (?)
Jackdaws all over the place !

Good to know the Little owls are staying put. It could be a while before the house is occupied due to planning problems.
