Well, I'm back on patch ...Hobby, Lesser Spotted Eagle, Marsh Harrier all over today, none new for the year. Overall, a real summer lull now, very little active.

 

[Cheshire Birder]

Nothing new for my garden but at my parents added Crossbill to the garden life list this afternoon!!

... a real summer lull now, very little active.

But I like it to be dull and boring when I return from a trip - it pushes me back to the internet to buy a plane ticket for another trip :t:

Summer lulls like that I could do with!

That's as maybe, Ken, but I've got all the winter stuff to go, & loads of common species like Kestrel & Mistle thrush.

I just thought I heard a Little owl, but just once & couldn't be sure.

73. Australian Kite [82nd spp for house and 13th raptor]

Summer certainly edging out now, a feel of autumn creeping in - several Nutcrackers on my plot this week, sure sign of end of summer. Also Black Woodpecker back in the flooded forest and a slow drift of raptors, storks and cranes overhead. Lesser Spotted Eagle lingering, one Goshawk through, a couple of Hobbies and, one addition to the year list, one Red-footed Falcon, I think third record on my land. Also one Reed Bunting, my first autumn record ever.

Missed one extra species with two overhead waders, picked them up far too late and they shall forever remain question marks, but whatever they were, they were probably new species for the land!


120. Red-footed Falcon.
