Not too much to report today, my 4 hour patch visit provided good views of the 2 RED KITES that remain at Bustard Hill though, that in itself was worth getting out for :-)
One of the Red Kites. No chance of getting near for a proper photo!
LESSER BLACK BACKED GULL and HERRING GULL also visited the cut silage crop at Bustard Hill, and at last HOUSE MARTIN (65) joined the months list when 2 flew over, that takes this Mays list to 65, way down in joint 10th place out of the 15 Mays recorded.
A pair of BUZZARDS were over my patch, as was a SPARROWHAWK, the male KESTREL brought food to the nest box and the female exited, they must have young in there now, good news.
A look around the Scrubby Woods for Odonata species only produced a single fly past Hairy Dragonfly, not yet quite warm enough for them here it seems.
No more newly fledged young were found.
