A slightly cooler day than of late but still pretty warm but still not productive for any serious birding locally.

Sunny, 26°, light S.

A walk out to Lollingdon but very little noted bird wise.

A Corn Bunting on the hill and singing and several Yellowhammer nearby.

20+ Red Kite around,  as several fields were being harvested for silage so plenty for the Kites to scavenge on like Skylark chicks or eggs!

Dragonflies: Banded Demoisell...
