Visited Hoe Lane twice yesterday to check out the Buzzard numbers.. First visit, en route to work was just before dawn, and there were precisely zero birds. Second visit was in the evening, and the Buzzards were present but back down to 8 birds, which has a nice symmetry about it.
Tried to check out Misselbrook Lane turf fields en route to work this morning, but it was still pretty dark and there didn't appear to be any birds there. Saw a couple of Bats indicating that I might be better advised to take my Bat detector out on pre-work trips for the rest of the year. |
