After a frustrating time trying to add year ticks, I still hadn't added anything this morning, sure I was happy to see Peregrine twice this morning, Kestrel again, Sparrowhawk again, but nothing else.
So I decided to head back tonight, at the car park field another Meadow Pipit flew over North calling, then I headed for the sailing club, hearing Grey Wagtail, then almost immediately a Chiffchaff toward Sandford, seeing 1 for sure, maybe a second in flight.
I looped to Bittern hide, chastising 2 guys with noisy dogs in the hide, then feeling lucky I headed back to overlook the landfill once more, but choosing to look from overlooking the balancing pool and immediately saw a Little Owl in the usual Oak tree hole.
It was time to head home, but I saw Jack and Julie at the roadside near Sandford Copse and pulled up for a quick chat, amazingly while we chatted a Tawny Owl flew over parallel with the river.
I'm not sure I've ever been level with the park on my year list, if so it will be short lived.
