New Years Day
Sunny at first then cloudy, 7°, light S.
The first bird of the year today was, inventively a Robin, heard singing at 02:30 this morning closely followed by a couple of Tawny Owl calling near Church road.
A walk out to Lollingdon and back produced 40+ more species.
7 Lapwing, a Grey Heron, plenty of Thrushes etc.
Alan saw 70+ Golden Plover on Cholsey Hill.
The surprisingly first butterfly of the year was a Red Admiral on Lollingdon Hill this morning.
Mammals included Roe & Muntjac Deer and Brown Hare.
