A longer walk this morning, beginning with a wander to 10 Acre Wood on the extreme North East corner of the parish. Not too many birds of note, but a party of 100+ starlings was a good early morning sight. House martins and swallows continue to head south, occasionally being chased by a solitary hobby. The latter has been seen on several occasions around The Ford. A breeding pair towards Stortford have 3 juveniles and it is likely that one of the adults makes its way over here to hunt. A wander along the side of Queer Wood gave good views of pheasants, one shown here highlighting the good camouflage. Also depicted several views of Queer Wood in good light.
