Not a bad day sunny but cool but with a few goodies.
Waxwing: two birds flew over the Nature Study Centre at 8.30am heading east calling. Then I heard that unmistakeable sound again as I stood on Long Bridge. This time about 40 birds flew south-east. Both records were of birds flying over quite high.

Firecrest: a male was seen in area 40 again.
Fieldfare: one was calling from the top of a tree before heading NW at 1.40pm.
Tawny Owl: one was hunting just north of area 1 at 6.30pm.
Common Teal: four birds were on the main lake.
The 1st winter Herring Gull had a lot of fun with this object
This photo puzzled me for a second before I remembered what it was. Any ideas?

It does look like a chip, but as it didn't break up in the water it must be a piece of wood.

Thank you for leaving a comment, there was a clue in that days blog sightings. I didn't have much time to try and grab a shot of the Fieldfare as it flew away from me. That photo was the best, but not an easy one to ID.
Cheers
