Successes and failures

Sunny spells, showers, 15º, fresh SW.

Very blowy on Lollingdon hill today and not much around, a few Red Kite and a single Kestrel on the hill but I would think most of the small stuff was sheltering from the rather strong wind, two Grey Partridge around and Swallows and Swifts feeding low along the hedgerows.
Some success and failures today as one of the young Blackbirds was found dead in the garden this morning, no obvious signs of trauma and did not appear emaciated so not sure why!

The Great Tits have young (3) and have been active in the garden for the past few days now along with a Blue Tit family and the Goldfinch family still present Song Thrush, Moorhen, Mallards and Stock Doves still feeding in the garden.
