A midday walk from new bridge to wightwick and back yesterday did not add much to Geoff's post. A pair of raven as usual flying on a north east to south west heading going towards tin acre hill. A pair of mistle thrush and a pair of goldfinch at Compton allotments were joined by 2 redwing. No siskin in the valley but they are still very much in evidence in garden silver birch on the escarpment.
Today's star bird was a peregrine which was circling the new houses by St Edmund's. 2 grey wagtail at either end of my circular route a bright bird at the water bridge and a subdued one at Compton lock. Plenty of song thrush sightings but not much song but the first full repertoire from a blackbird. Goldcrest on the canal where there were 4 little grebe.
