End of February

 Well it was quite warm when the sun came out but still the wind was cold..The first time you got a bit of a feeling that spring was not far away today..A small group of 5 Meadow Pipits , 2 Pied Wags  and 2 Skylarks headed N/W and a skein of 50 + Pink footed Geese went due west..Lapwings and Curlew were in the bottom field along with 2 Moorhens and 1 Grey Heron. Gulls were drifting south with plenty of BHeads , Commons and Herrings , but the bird of the day was an adult  Great - black backed Gull ......Dunnocks , Blackbirds and more singing Skylarks a Green Woodpecker called from Ned Hill track area , The Roe Deer stag was seen today which is the first time I've seen him for a while......5 females have been about for most of the winter , ..3 Stonechat were nice to see............2 distant Little Owls , singing Reed Bunt and Red legged Partridge....Barn Owls seen daily at the moment..
