A lunchtime walk along the river produced a nice selection of good birds for this urban location including Kingfisher, Stock Dove, Raven, Nuthatch and Jay. Most notable sighting was of a mixed flock of over 100 Redwings and Fieldfares. I have witnessed this phenomenon in previous years - Scandinavian thrushes massing in treetops at this particular spot with much chattering and whistling, and the occasional piece of song. Chiffchaffs were singing at two sites.

"The grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never dried all at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls".
