Red Lane, Gospel End Village (September 6)

Heavy rain flooded the fields and it hasn't taken long for a group of 10 mallards to colonise one 'pond'. They look like they have been there for ever!
Two sightings of single common buzzards, adult and juvenile wood pigeons everywhere. Single lesser black-backed gull in flight, pied wagtail on a field and a female kestrel perched on one of the masts.
The highlight though was a weasel that ran across the lane. This is the closest I have seen one to home and has come with the explosion of rabbits in the area over the last year or so.
