The Sparrowhawk was back in the garden first thing this morning, this time just looking around for prey.
This afternoon I went back to the landfill and Shawell lagoons to check out for more scarce Gulls following yesterdays sightings, however the Gulls were few. Although this morning many were present and Carl did see 2 Glaucous and 1 Iceland Gull there. The lagoons were also fairly quite and similar birds as yesterday, although now 2 Great-crested Grebe. These are now dispersing from their wintering sites to locate breeding sites, although they have never bred here yet.
One the way home I noticed a mixed flock of Redwing and Fieldfare, about 100, flying to the east of the village and 3 Stock Doves were on the pasture. A Green Woodpecker was calling from its usual wood area.
