Round the doors.
Potter on the bike this morning was productive:
Great Grey Shrike still distant at West Hartford. Plus Stonechat and 60 Lapwing over.
On the Horton Burn an incredible 4 Little Egret together on the middle (park) section, plus one of the group (or another) near the old fire station.
Also on the burn, six Mallard, 1 Teal, 1 Grey Wagtail, 1 Moorhen and an obliging Kingfisher.

The egrets have landed
Well, 3 have.
Nice to have on our urban doorstep- three frequenting the Horton Burn, with occasional "from the house" and "from the car" views as we go about our turgid business.

Great Grey Day
A bonus upon return from a brief Dublin 24hrs trip, with a phone call from Phil: Great Grey Shrike at West Hartford.
Jolly good it was too, albeit very distant.
My 2nd in Cramlington.
