2 Short-eared Owls emerged at about 2pm followed by another 2 soon after, but they soon disappeared. They remaining 2 gave a brief aerial courtship display before alighting on top of bushes. They were not nearly as active as yesterday, but when the sun shone briefly the light reflected beautifully on the underparts of one of them as it passed overhead.
Meanwhile a Buzzard came from the Sandybridge Lane end and settled in a bush not far from Lundhill Lane. At least 3 Kestrels were hovering and a Sparrowhawk was seen with prey. A Little Owl was languishing in a tree where the wooden pallets are and 110 Fieldfare alighted in trees near the flash. Also present were 6 Goldfinch and 11 Redpoll.
