Just a quick list of the birds I’m seeing a lot of at the moment.

A pair of Reed Buntings seem to be setting up home. We had a male Sparrowhawk hanging out by the pond for a good few minutes: he seemed more interested in the frogs than in bathing this time.

There are more Herring Gulls on the roof of the bungalow to the back than I remember being usual. They must be feeding bread or something.

The only warbler I’ve spotted to date was a chiff chaff.
