Visit there today 1.30-4.30pm, warm but not a glint of sunshine :(

4 Barn Owl ( all seen together at the same time - one in particular was very vocal when it spotted me on 4 occasions within about half an hour)
1 Sparrowhawk
2 Kestrel
2 Marsh Harrier
100+ Fieldfare (very vocal)
16 Redwing
10 Goldfinch
c100 Lapwing
2 Pied Wagtail
2 Wren
1 Robin


When I was watching one of the Barnies, it dropped to the ground onto prey and as I was watching it through my bins, I spotted a Sparrowhawk coming from behind it inches off the ground
and they both had a bit of a scrap. I have only ever seen Kestrels doing this, first time I have witnessed it happening with a Sparrowhawk.
