The Lincolnshire Bird Club

Good views of an Rough Legged Buzzard flying low along the length of Temple Wood viewed accross Hawthorpe Setaside at 12.15 today. A very pale bird with white rump/tail and black tail band clearly visible. Despite walking accross the setaside for another hour we failed to relocate it.

Supporting cast:-
2 Common Buzzards
1 Kestrel
13 Common Snipe
200 Fieldfare
Skylarks
Meadow Pipits

2 brown hares
180 Fallow Deer - the most I have seen in area.

Meanwhile the Common Buzzard that raided my bird table is currently visible from my back garden perched on a telegraph pole 100 yards away!

Called in again on Tuesday on way up to Scotland on business (hence delay in posting)but in the 15 minutes I was there no sign of the RLB but good views of a Peregrine.
