Bradshaw - Taylor Lane - Soil Hill - Farm Track etc

14:10 - 16:50

I had a very humid walk up to Soil Hill and down the north slope to the first tree line, this afternoon.
I sat on a rock, ate and apple and a choc. biscuit to get my energy back up.
Home was via Ned Hill Road and the farm track and field path.

Coming off Soil Hill's west side I was scanning north and 2 Swift were being 'pestered' by what looked like a third Swift but maybe slightly larger.
Anyway the birds were toooooooo distant and soon became more distant - could have been a Raptor in there but I'll never know.

Kestrel. 3 Pheasant. Greenfinch. 16 Lesser Black-backed Gull. Blackbird.
House Sparrow. Woodpigeon. 5 Curlew. 7 Whitethroat. 3 Swift.
