A long wander, in wonderful conditions, led to seeing over 24 species of bird. Nothing too noteworthy but a common buzzard in trees near Hadham Hall was a new bird for this site. A 2nd buzzard was seen near Ford Hill as I returned from the hall, Bury Green via Millfield Lane and Hoecroft Lane. Plenty of starlings (200+) and fieldfare (250+)in horse fields around Millfield Lane, along with both green and great spotted woodpeckers. A good find was a roost where a barn owl had been, with 5 large pellets found which I can use for my school science shows. Will need to return to see if the owl itself is present. Photos of the buzzard at the hall and, an as yet unidentified, fungus found in hedgerow by thge village school.
