Friday 8th December

Just before Henleaze Junior School I spotted a heron, he came down somewhere behind the houses opposite the school entrance. Goldfish for breakfast, perhaps! By Downleaze there was a large group of black headed gulls on the grass. from the behaviour of the jackdaws above their tree, I think they have decided that spring in coming, thus it was very obvious that they were in pairs, this is particularly appealing when a large group are flying around. The effect is that the flock seems to be doubled up in the air in its movements. There were 40+ birds doing this manoeuvre.

The jackdaws may think that spring is around the corner, I felt that it was rather nippy this morning.
