03.09.08 new mammal species

A quick walk up Chapel Lane and around Queer Wood, in good evening light, offered little in the bird world. Small parties of stock doves were enjoying the spilt wheat in the stubble fields along with tens of wood pigeons. A lone lesser black backed gull weaved its way south in the strong breeze a a couple of goldfinches headed north. House martins were still busy feeding their brood under the guttering of Home Farm.
However, a field mouse was noted on the footpath south of Chapel Lane. A first recording of this as it scuttled along the footpath in front of me.
