Slangs was the place to be, where fly-overs of
Raven and
Yellow Wagtail were noted while listening to a male
Lesser Whitethroat belting out its song. The Raven is our 15th record, one of which was earlier this year, but the other two species bring our year list to 81 species. An incredible four
Red-legged Partridges, two pairs, were seen in Broadfield. A male
Wheatear was along the fenceline between Horse Pasture and Reads Bottom, a
Red Kite was seen low over Legal & General and it, or another, was seen over Wood Lane later on. Two
Canada Geese seen flying over were probably the same pair seen over the last couple of days and four
Swallows flew through.
