Hello
I forgot to mention that early yesterday morning a Barn Owl was seen alongside the road between Creaton and Brixworth. I hope it fares better than the Barn Owl I picked up dead this morning alongside the busy A508 between Hanging Houghton and Brixworth. The bird was fresh and had been killed this morning; it was also ringed so I await details of where it originated.
The male Brambling graced the garden again this morning, arguing over the sunflower hearts with the local Greenfinches, and a couple of Reed Buntings came in for seed this afternoon. A visit to Brixworth Sewer Works confirmed the continued presence of a couple of Grey Wagtails and a Chiffchaff.
The gull roost at Pitsford Reservoir this afternoon was mostly uneventful but the adult Caspian Gull showed up again.
Regards
Neil M
