birdcount --- 30th April 2012

Here is the spreadsheet for April 30th bird-count at Old Lodge.


40 species, but still some obvious things missing.  Where are the greenfinch, mistle thrush, stock dove. Meadow Pipit

We saw a male blackbird with rather a lot of white on the primaries, but decided that it really was a blackbird, and not an Ousel.

We saw the Raven nest and it was different from last year.  And we saw a young one clambering around in the tree, and not wanting to fly even though we were below it.  Or maybe because we were below it.  :-)

Nice lot of arrivals, and I thought the blackcap numbers rather good.
