Tuesday 21st Dec 2010 - Kidderminster

The 2 Blackcaps were again visiting the garden today. 11 Blackbirds, 13 House Sparrows and a Robin were also present. 14 Fieldfares flew over heading SW and a Common Buzzard flew towards the Bewdley Road being mobbed by a Carrion Crow.

The highlight today was a Peregrine that was seen perched on top of the old brick chimney stack at Weavers Wharf retail park. I can see this stack from the bedroom window and below I have attached a dodgy distant record shot (taken through the window). Double glazing, poor light, distance and digiscoping...not a good combination!

    I guess I could have actually gone down to the retail park with all my gear to take some pics but not with every man and his kids there doing the christmas shopping!
