Monday 27th November

Another miserable kind of the day with a few hail showers clattering against the windows, what a noise. To be on the safe side, I emptied out the rain gauge as it was almost full, and it is not the end of the month yet....
Phill, yesterday had taken a walk round Loch Skerrols and then back through Bridgend  Woods and had seen 5 Buzzards, a Golden Eagle, 2 Chough, 2Wood Pigeons, a flock of Skylarks, 120 Barnies flew overhead and then around 80 Whitefronts were seen with more geese noted in the distance. In the woods, many Coal Tits, a few Great Tits and Blue Tits as well as a couple of Song Thrushes were present. In the afternoon, over at the Singing Sands, he counted 28 Mallard, 5 GND, 4  R b Merganser, and a couple of GBB Gulls.
