Today... Friday 22nd August 2008. A very large feeding party of Twite (20-30) flying between Slate and Radio Mast, Greenfinch (3), Swallows (6 and local), Wood Pigeon (2), I am sure I heard a trace call from a Willow Warbler (1), Superb close ups of 2 Peregrines (one adult and one juvenile) at times the Juvenile was closing in on the adult and rollovers where seen. Also whilst watching the Peregrines I noticed there was at least four Kestrels in the bigger picture. Blue Tits (family party), Wren (2), Chaffinch (a family party), Raven (2 headed NE-SW), Magpie 2, A large party (80 approx) of mixed LBBG/Herring Gulls, Goldfinch (2). 

Common Gull on Wednesday 20th August 2008 feeding at Cribden End.
