Stonechat at Jolly's Field

A day spent being prodded, pricked, stretched and pulled at St Cross Hospital which allowed an opportunity between appointments to check on jolly’s field for an extended lunch managing a few Fieldfare & Redwing before they depart, an excitable Great-spotted Woodpecker, plenty of Great & Blue Tit, 5 Siskin, 2 Lesser Redpoll, 3 Raven, Sparrowhawk and best of all a Stonechat.

Despite the heavy traffic the long walk home produced a calling Brambling and another 2 Great-spotted Woodpecker along the Ashlawn Road while the sky was full of gulls heading for the roost at Draycote Water.
