A
Mistle Thrush was singing strongly this morning - it seemed to be coming from somewhere between the station and the Arches but I could not see the bird. This species is quite unusual on this part of the patch and always good to see or hear. Nearby, lots of
Chaffinches and
Goldfinches, a
Greenfinch, a
Robin, a
Dunnock and 2
Blackbirds on the station and a
Grey Squirrel near the feeders.
There were 3 flies in the flat this morning, one of which fell under the hot water tap as I was running the bath. I rescued it but although it could walk around a bit, its wings were clearly damaged and it was unable to fly (a distinct disadvantage for a fly). At least one of the flies was a
Bluebottle species.
