Cotesbach landfill; a look after lunch, a reasonable number of Gulls in, but most were just sitting on the water and looking 'worried'. It soon became obvious why, the Falconer was flying his Gyr type over the tip area and it occasionally coming close to the water area. An adult Caspian was visible among the flock. A couple of Green Sandpiper flew over and one settled on the far side bank.
The adjacent field which is just being prepared for sand excavation was holding a good mixed flock of Finches, Buntings, Skylark and Meadow Pipit. Chaffinch, c50 Linnets, Yellowhammer, Reed Bunting were present in numbers, 10+ Skylark. The weather took a turn for the worst, must explore this field further.
