The latest WeBS count didn't provide many surprises although a Common Buzzard passing over at 07:30 was a bit of a surprise. In fact I had bagged the Buzzard, a Kestrel and a Kingfisher within the first five minutes of this visit.
A Skylark and 2 Meadow Pipits passed over West and a couple of Lesser Redpoll were a first for me at this site.
The feathery remains of a single Mute Swan looked like the aftermath of a Foxes dinner.
The full count was:
Black-headed Gull 15
Buzzard 1
Canada Goose 3
Cormorant 6
Grey Heron 2
Grey Wagtail 1
Kestrel 1
Kingfisher 1
Lapwing 13 Another 24 over circled over the park as I was leaving.
Little Grebe 1
Mallard 33
Mute Swan 10
Pied/White Wagtail 1
Snipe 2
Total number of species: 14 Individuals: 90
