7th October

Trip to South Yorkshire to see the Pallid Harrier called off at last minute so went my usual walk over Roils Head and had a very pale Buzzard fly south, also still 5 or 6 Swallows still present. Afternoon visit to Hunter Hill watch point with DJS proved to be a success with 5 Common Buzzards flying south east in 1 hour, also 3 Cormorants, 1 Grey Heron, 20+ Red Grouse, 1 Little Owl, 4 Goosander, 1 Tufted Duck, lots of LBBGs, 3 Kestrels and a superb Merlin sat on fence posts, unfortunatly I didnt have my digi scope camera with me but managed a record shot through the scope with the lumix fz18. Probably the same bird as the one last night.
