Another dry calm day. No visits to Boulmer today, too much to do.

While I was feeding the birds in our yard this morning a Peregrine, maybe the same bird as Christmas Day, flew high overhead, before dropping into a massive stoop out of sight behing the rooftops. A few seconds later the sky darkened with gulls, pigeons and starlings scattering to all four quarters...

Still no proper birding to boost the list. Unless there is a massive change in fortune Dean at Mostly Macro is going great guns and has had some nice tricky birds on his list...

I'm hoping to get out tomorrow for a few hours in the hope of nailing a biggie, such as Canada Goose, Teal or maybe even the dizzy heights of Coot...

Yes, its that bad....

Aye, not sure theres much point in me partaking in this Bloggers Bird Race for reasons quoted in your posting.

Mind you, I have had Coot :)

Oh, and had Tawny Owl(s) while lying in bed the other night.......I'm beginning to like this new house :)
