Red Lane, Gospel End Village (September 15)

The SWALLOWS seem to have all but gone, I saw just 1 bird around Red Lane Farm. Two other sightings of 2 and c.6 birds respectively were of migrating birds. There were several HOUSE MARTINS high over fields beyond Penn Brook.
The MAGPIES are starting to group together and 13 birds were in one small hawthorn tree.
Unusual sightings for the lane of JACKDAW (6 birds) and ROOK (several in with CARRION CROW) on bottom field on the right.
A juvenile and adult MOORHEN on the lane pond and other birds included: GREEN WOODPECKER (feeding on ground inside water works area), HOUSE SPARROW (female), BLACK HEADED GULL (single bird in flight).
