Today started with a skein of perhaps 30 Greylag Geese flying across the motorway near East Fulwood Farm.
Heading home, a Kestrel was upsetting the local Starlings as it hunted the Rhubarb field at Arkleston Farm while ten (presumed) Mallards dropped down onto the flooded field opposite the south west corner of Hillington Industrial Estate (might try to check it for waders sometime - if I ever get a minute). A Grey Squirrel was a road casualty at Penilee.
Swifts seem all but gone from the area, although one of the junior connectors reported two from Barshaw Park this afternoon. Swallows are still about but the 50 or so which were using wires at Arkleston Farm seem to have vanished.
