I went with two pals Bird Watching this morning near the River Severn. We ended up with 46 species spotted. Some of the highlights were Common Cranes, Curlew, Lapwing,  a Merlin sitting on a post, Short-eared Owl, my first Fieldfares of the Winter -nearly a 100 and resplendent male Stonechat. Really lucky to live where we do. I managed to get the Cranes in flight!

More birding tomorrow with young people from Old Oak London at Wick Court followed by Book Club tomorrow evening.
