Saw the same birds & deer as last weekend here including the Kingfisher & Hawfinches in Brinken Wood but not the Woodlark.
Extra birds today though were a couple of Lesser Spotted Woodpeckers, one in Brinken Wood & one at Fletchers Thorns & three Lapwings were on Wide Lawn.  | Knight Commander of the Wild Empire | | Comments 0

Sika hinds were all over the place & a herd of Fallow was in Hawkhill Inclosure.
The other highlights today was a Woodlark doing his song-flight on the clear-fell area at the end of Frame Heath Inclosure & a large flock of Reed Buntings.
Also seen & heard:
Great Spotted Woodpeckers
