| A good day for flying |
 |
| 'Poplar' spot by Windrush |
Bit of a busman's holiday as I visited Sherborne's water meadows while Mike was actually on a break in Prague! Water levels down by about a foot since my last visit but a fine sunny day and pretty quiet. Plenty of
Red Kites on show together with a
Kestrel being pestered by a Crow and a brief fly by of a single
Cormorant. Oddly a juvenile Buzzard joined 3 of the Red Kites over one of the larger Barrington estate fields. Other than that 2 pairs of
fallow deer I disturbed in my not so stealthy patrol around the meadows. No owls or harriers on this visit but still a pleasant way of making the most of a dry sunny day.
Worth mentioning another good
guest entry Ralph Underhill, on the Mark Avery Blog. Surprised to see that NT wasn't one of the participants on the Common Cause for Nature project it looks worthy.
