A quiet birding day in the county

Hello

A wander up and around Harrington Airfield this morning was breezy but pleasant weather-wise. Two vocal Common Redstarts were in the bushes right on Bunker One with a pair of Grey Partridge nearby. There were quite a number of juvenile Willow Warblers in the bushes, not I suspect all locally bred.

This afternoon there were at least four Yellow-legged Gulls at the southern end of Pitsford Reservoir and two very distant juvenile gulls could have been this species too.

Regards
