Lesser whitethroat this morning 6.40am (lifer) at roundabout on centenary way opposite arco. First heard then seen a couple times,could not stick around fo long had to go to work. also whitethroat at next circle,before centenary bridge.
on my way to work this morning 6.30am,the chiiffchaff at the ecology park now has the company off a blackcap. also near guiness rd 2 very noisey oystercatchers. then later in the morning whilst at work around 11.30am had a swallow fly over as i went outside to get some paint (good timing)
3 times this week on my way to work going past ecology park tue,wed and today at 6.30am had a chiffchaff singing,but no signs off it on my back at 3.45.
Good to see a flock of 25+ Greenfinch (given the current disease problems they are having) using some tall evergreens on Mercury Way as a roosting site this evening. Noted them in the vacinity a couple of times last week and tracked them down to here, so presume its a regular site.
A very festive sighting this evening while xmas shopping, a Robin was inside the Trafford Centre flying between the fake trees (complete with xmas lights) near John Lewis.
