A walk around after work and a better than average haul: A juvenile Marsh Harrier on the mere with a supporting cast of Kingfisher, Turtle Dove, Yellow Wagtail, and Common Snipe.
Also managed to catch up with one of the Spotted Flycatchers, my first there this year.
In the garden, a Swift was seen on a couple of occasions around the church. A Frog was on the patio. And an unfortunately dead Wood Mouse was found on the lawn.
