Black Country Birders

• 26th January 2007

 

Gareth: 32 Golden Plover flew over Dunstall Park this morning.

 

Kevin: At Netherton Reservoir this afternoon, some 1,500 Black-headed, 330 Lesser Black-backed and 20 Herring Gulls, most of which came in from the west and flew straight on towards Bartley Reservoir; so frustrating, anything could have been with them! Also present were three Great Crested Grebes and some Dabchick, but no sign of the Tufted Duck or Canada Geese. Whilst watching the gulls from the car, a bird flew past so closely that I heard its wings cut through the air - a Sparrowhawk, which very nearly flew in through the open window!

 

Gareth: 67 species. Kevin: 58 species.
