Heinz 57+

Had 3 hours on the local patched and bagged over 57 different birds, 2 hares, and a roe deer.

I thought this time of year on my patch was a bit quiet but how wrong am I, how about this lot and I have probably missed a few.
Curlew, Yellow wagtail, Pied wagtail, Chiff chaff, Blackcap, Willow warbler, Sedge warbler, Oyster catcher, Mute swan, Greylag goose, Mallard, Grey Heron, Long tailed tit, Coal tit, Great tit, Blue tit, Bullfinch, Skylark, Meadow Pipit, Jay, Blackbird, Song thrush, Mistle thrush, Tufted duck, Linnet, Greenfinch, Goldfinch,  White-throat, Kestrel, Chaffinch, Wood-pigeon, Crow, Jackdaw, Moorhen, Reed bunting, Tree sparrow, House sparrow, Dunnock, Yellow hammer, Redshank, Red partridge, Pheasant, Mute swan, Wren, Robin, Gad-wall, Black headed gull, Swift, Swallow, House martin, Sand martin, Snipe, Buzzard, Marsh harrier, Peregrine, Rook, Great crested grebe ,Little Grebe.

The highlight was probably 4 separate Cuckoo, and two separate White-throat families.
