Hobby count on the up

Today's visit was all car park field and despite the warm weather wasn't fairing too well for the forst 45 mins, then I got 1 Hobby over the landfill, which slowly headed towards DP. Then a second over the landfill again distantly.

Little changed for 30+ minutes, then chatting to Mike and Alan when they arrived, I picked up 2, then 3, then 4 Hobby and over the next 20-30 mins a minimum of 6 were hunting over the mid landfill and Lodge Wood airspace.

It is the first time I have had more than 4 Hobby since 2002, when I broke the records during May, reaching 14 on 27th.

I had all the other usual raptors as well of course.
