Patchwork

Been hitting to local patch, (Broomey Croft), since my trip to Wales in the hope of finding the first of the summer migrants.
Nothing major has appeared yet, however there have been 2 Shelduck and 2 oystercatchers on Cliff Pool.Another good sighting was a Raven croaking as it flew over in the direction of Fazeley.
The number of Black headed Gulls has also increased to around 500 with many displaying and making territories.Just hope they leave a little room for the Common Terns, when and if they arrive.
