This morning there were seven Whooper Swans on the Deep Pit. They had probably spent the night there and had gone by 08.30. There was also a flock of about 20 Lesser Redpolls in a Deep Pit birch tree and a Peregrine was on the new pylon again. PS.

In the evening there were about 10,000 Starlings at the roost , eight more Whooper Swans were seen flying NW and a Tawny Owl was calling from the Deep Pit bank. PR.
