Peter Jones, "Hampshire Diary"

Friday, July 18, 2008 - Swifts passing through, and a Hobby overhead.

Noticed a slight change in the local bird scene yesterday: A decent flock of around 12 Greenfinches was quite noticeable over the gardens, and a trickle of Swifts throughout the day signalled the start of Autumn for me! All were heading West. Had I been able to pay more attention to them throughout the day, I'm sure the numbers would have easily been into 3 figures.

A bit of quality was added by a Hobby drifting high over, early evening. A first for the "garden", making up for a probable that got away earlier this year.
