Blankety blank !

It was a second consecutive blank with the NTGG (north thames gull group) today ! as in the birds just didn't want to know, we laid a nice bit of rotten, smelly Rainham rubbish, but birds just lazed about being non-cooperative.

Anyway it was good to see great numbers of Yellow-legs, with probably 30 birds of various ages on the tip.

Other birds of note were several Yellow Wagtails, with a steady stream of Meadow Pipit and several Reed Bunting over.

A juv Peregrine caused a bit of panic with the gull's, until seen of by a local Kestrel !
