On a pretty breezy morning a cacophony of post-dawn Carrion Crows were an alert for a large and bushy-tailed Fox on nextdoor's flat workshop roof; the crows followed him as he made his way across the neighbouring gardens. A Cormorant set off from the pond roost heading west soon after.
Later at the pond a 25-strong mixed tit flock (mostly LOTTis) was moving through and alarm-calling the presence of a Sparrowhawk which circled a couple of times before heading off into the gardens. Several Migrant Hawkers were on the wing and a calling Cetti's, the first in a while, was in the south side scrub. A female shoveler was the first one back.
