Tuesdays 27th October, 3rd November. Sunday 8th November

A combination of allotment work, sloth and the weather have kept me away from cycling over the last few weeks. Today (Sunday) was grey and rather too cold for my liking, it may have been around 10C, but an east wind chill made it much colder. Large numbers of assorted gulls scattered over the Downland grass, and at the Peregrine Watch a fleeting glimpse of a Sparrow Hawk as it passed us at cliff level. The tide was high, so no mud birds.
Last Tuesday I cycled in sunshine and the tide was quite low. From Sea Walls I could see a single Redshank down on the mud, and further down river the very black wing cases of what could only be a group of Greater Black Backed Gulls with some of their juveniles. The Tuesday before that has been lost to my memory!
