This was a bizarre session; the first part at Cold Edge provided several birds then the second at Hunter Hill virtually zilch. It was however a welcome change to experience a true Spring Day 😊.
Cold Edge: pr Common Sandpiper, 8 Tufted Duck, 1 Grey Heron, ditto Reed Bunting, pr Stonechat.
Several WW, 3/4 Swallow, ditto Curlew. Couple Lapwing & 1 Oystercatcher.
A couple or three Skylark were on the top road but down the entire length of Hunter Hill nothing but Crows. I did see a Field Vole scurry away from me.
A pr of Mallard 🦆 had a single Dullardling in tow on Mixenden Nothingness. Yesterday they had 3, proof indeed of a high predation rate. 2 Chiffs still Chaffing.
