The weather was a lot better this morning, so we made our way to the south of the county. Here the highlights were
Goshawks, Merlin, lots of Ravens and a single Dipper. I got out the car and walked into a field and watched a blue
male Merlin put up
50+Yellowhammers. I scanned the skies and way in the distance I picked up a
male Goshawk. When the hawk had flown out of site, I looked up to see 2 more birds, male and a female, at much closer range.
A quick look at venus on the return home, found
2 fem Pintails and on the sailing lake, a
fem Goldeneye and 3 fem Gooseander. Nearby, just out of Cressage, I found that an
adult Whooper Swan had joined the three already present that arrived just over a month ago, just out of Cressage with over
70 Mute Swans.
Up to 3 Goshawks were in the area
Dipper showing very well at Longnor
