February 18th 2008

Draycote Water had 1st winter Iceland Gull in the roost along with adult Yellow-legged Gull in far from ideal conditions, overcast and dull. Also seen were 3 Great-northern Diver, Red-necked Grebe, 3 Buzzard, Jay, male Smew and 11 Goosander. Bob Duckhouse had 3 Dotted border and 2 Pale Brindle Beauty on the cafe walls. My own trap had March Moth and Dotted Border.
Many thanks to all those who e-mailed me regarding Bob Hazells picture of the hybrid falcon, seems it has a large hunting area being sighted at Marton, Brauston and Southam.
