The horse paddocks are still lifting with Pipits, Wagtails and Wheatears many of which seem unphased by human or vehicular activity perhaps indicating desperation to feed or being from wild places not burdened by human prescence.
Always nice when you get a bit of interaction with species not prone to doing so.
Many though just keep their head down in concentration and ignore you. I wish that were so of the 150 Golden Plover in splendid plumage that I have again failed to get close enough for a decent shot. Other birds added to the list but avoiding the camera thus far are Redstart, Little Owl and Whitefthroat with my first Swift of the year over Kingston Park yesterday. I notice my work is also picking up just to hamper my birding.
Swift! I'm still looking for my first House Martin.
