I can't see the original sticky so will start a new thread.  Saw nearly 30,000 knot on Breydon Water yesterday.  Great weekend at Minsmere, Otter, Kingfishers, Bitterns, lots of Marsh Harriers

Whilst out today and we just coming to a crossroads slowly and had a Goshawk fly in front of us just over the bonnet of car very close wow.

Plenty of birds of prey where we stopped for our picnic a local viewpoint over the river Lot, also quite a few Cormorants about.

good photo greylag.

 

Out for a walk today and saw a male Cirl Bunting had a good view of it and then on the way back found a dead long tailed tit on the side of the road, shame as I like seeing them.

My usual walk yesterday and on the way back in next field to ours I saw a head pop up and then got a closer look with the binos and had a Red Legged Partridge do not see them around here but but have seen them about a couple of miles away so will keep a look out for more and then on the wall at the bottom of our field the local Pheasant was about.   When back home  realised my right ankle was painful do have an old injury on that foot so now strapped up and not walking very far today.

We used to see a little group of red legged partridge on a remote CL in Cornwall, they had lots of scrub and cover, we didn't realise at the time they were an introduced species. Hope your ankle recovers!

12º in the garden today. Although no other insects flying I was surprised to see so many bees on the hellebores. They were honey bee size but looked like three different species, not bumble bees.
