I mentioned a while back about a pair of Mistle Thrush I'd seen. I'd not seen nor heard of them again until last week when I saw a magpie fly into a tree and heard a bit of a scuffle and the Mapie fly off. I was sure I heard a Mistle Thrush and the next day I saw one flying into a nearby tree. Hopefully they have been successful.

While working I could hear the swallows alarming, and arcing through them was a magnificent Hobby. Sadly I didn't have any bins nearby, but it was in the field adjacent to me and ended going off over my head so had decent views.

Been a couple of years since I last saw one as well, and that was at a nature reserve where they are daily this time of year. Made the day that much better.

Very quiet in the garden now that everything has fledged and flown. Even the raucous gaggle of Starlings have moved on.

One faithful Robin and a few Sparrows, plus the evening snack and bath for the Collared Doves and that's it :(

We had 10 pairs of Doves last year, only one this year. Over-zealous shooting I reckon as the Wood Pigeons are much scarcer this year too.

Been reading through this thread today, and as much as I can't see the fun in it, i've been googling the pictures and following your expeditions.....this thread is surprisingly interesting....and some of the birds are actually quite stunning....
