A walk up to the nursery first thing produced 10 Wheatear and 6 Fieldfare but not much else, although to be fair it was bloody freezing here before the sunny started pumping a bit of heat out. Back home a Red Kite was seen extremely poorly, apparently coming off roost and disappearing just above ground level- and there it was, gone! Garden birds today included Common Swift west fly over Yellow wagtail and a Whimbrel going south-est inland. A visit to a local private site early evening produced a Hobby (FOTS) presumably looking for somewhere to roost.
