House sparrows |
Throughout a damp morning there was a steady procession of spadgers at the feeders together with a couple of juvenile blue tits and the now regular trio of great tits.

Even at this stage of high Summer there were a lot of gulls loafing on the water. Rafts of black-headed gulls tended to stick to the quays while a raft of lesser black-backs and herring gulls floated midwater in the canal. A big herd of mute swans had congregated by the Lowry. Just the one coot, though, where I'd expect half a dozen.
