As I do my rehab following a hip replacement I can now walk to Ladybarn Park.

Over the last few days there have been groups of 2-4 Common Gulls and up to 10 Black-headed Gulls - dependent on disturbance from dog walkers.

Lesser Black-Backed Gull is resident and has been around since the summer.

Other typical urban birds like Robin, Blackbird, Dunnock, Ring-necked Parakeet, Magpie, Carrion Crow, Starling, Long-tailed Tit, Blue Tit, Great Tit, House Sparrow and Goldfinch.

Redwings are present sporadically and I suspect they may be working their way up and down the railway line.
