Lazy day

Starling

I suspect most of December will be spent filling bird feeders. The arrival of the starlings was accompanied by a lot of noise from very disgruntled spadgers.

• Black-headed Gull 1 overhead
• Blackbird 2
• Blue Tit 2
• Coal Tit 1
• Collared Dove 2
• Common Gull 1 overhead
• Dunnock 1
• Feral Pigeon 1
• Great Tit 2
• House Sparrow 29
• Magpie 1
• Starling 40
• Woodpigeon 2

Across the road the gulls were out in force in the blustery weather:

• Black-headed Gull 31 
• Common Gull 2 
• Feral Pigeon 4 
• Herring Gull 7 (two adults, one 4th-winter, a 3rd-winter, two 2nd-winters, and a brute of a male 1st-winter)
• Jackdaw 7 
• Lesser Black-backed Gull 6 (five adults and a 1st-winter)
