I took a plant to Mum and Dad's grave early afternoon. Two mistle thrushes alighted on the tower of St. Mary's church, which overlooks Hitcham Park. After a while first one then the other swooped towards me with a lovely undulating flight, disappearing into the nearby yew tree. Two more birds appeared from the back of the churchyard and swooped into the tree after them - so probably a family party.
A quick visit to Dorney produced a sparrowhawk circling over the mud on the common. A dunlin was on the far side of the Eton Wick flood.
