i could hear a flock of geese calling, they seemed high and distant, i never saw them it was to dark. Sounded like very early pink feet but numbers unknown.
friday 7th
highlight of the wk, i spent 20 minutes watching a superb hobby hunting over the golf course near north sea lane. i had the full aerobatic display, feet dropping feeding on the wing. no swallows in sight so it must have been insects. It was last seen going south over the fitties area around 14.00 hrs. When you see sights like that it reminds me of why i love birds so much.
