Love kestrels. Wonderful it was so close. We used to get a lot of them, but the highways people cut all the scrub along the motorway and dual carriageway banks, so don't see them so often as that is where they hunted.

I had a walk around the village. Trees full of sparrows and starlings, the odd seagull and crows doing acrobatics...must be more Wind on the way

We get some starlings, but not as many as we used to. I do sometimes hear a bush twittering as I pass, so must be full of hedge sparrows, and do sometimes see them. We get gulls and rooks, mainly in the fields after work being done, but some gulls have taken up residence down our local shops. We are about 15 miles from the sea, so not really seagulls any more.

Gulls move to the food.. unfortunately that is humans' rubbish...and there aren't so many fish in the sea
