Stuck in traffic by the Black Country Museum at 4.38pm when I saw a female goshawk over the Castlegate area. It was high in the sky and heading lazily in the direction of Netherton. It made me think how many people were cursing the slow movement on the roads, yet it was that which had opened the door for me to look around while I waited. Every cloud has a silver lining and all that stuff. Takes me to 81 birds for the year, apart from 1 all seen within a short radius of home.
