Soil Hill to Mixenden

8 Lapwing at Mountain also a bunch of Starling.
SH: I got very good views of 1 Black Redstart and I think the other bird is still present given the flitting about I saw. Putting their size into perspective a Blackbird was in the same spot looking bulky. Also 8 Meadow Pipit & a second Blackbird.

Ogden was almost inert. Usual Gulls in small numbers. 1 Bullfinch ditto Green Woodpecker & 7/8 LTT.
The golf course coughed up 1 each Jay, Kestrel, Mistle Thrush & male Stonechat.

Surprisingly c13 LTT were flying around trees at Hunter Hill bottom and 8 Fieldfare were in a field but soon flew off.
Mixenden Res: Plenty of small gulls with 3/4 big uns thrown in. A pr Tufted Duck & 3 Dullards.
