Horton Bank Country Park

A warm sunny afternoon where once again I was overlayered. On the other hand I wasn’t overwhelmed with birds e.g not a single hirundine present (there were no Swallows or Sand/House Martins seen either 🤓).

A Mute Swan pair have built their nest in a very vulnerable spot I can’t see it lasting long given the scumsuckers that gravitate there in the later hours 😏.

Singles Moorhen & Coot. 11 Canadas not a single Gull seen nor heard.

1 Whitethroat, 3 WW, 2 Chiffchaff. 
Couple Blackbird ditto Chaffinch & Robin.
