Bright sunny 30 minutes

As it was very bright and sunny, I thought there would be a good chance of Skylark being up, so headed down to the car park field.

Many Kites were up, 8+ Buzzard and while I was watching one of the latter, a Skylark fluttered thru my scope view, I did pick it up again on the deck briefly. 2 other brown jobs flew quickly SE, but I couldn't get enough on them to clinch their ID. Nuthatch called the whole time I was there, as did Great Spotted Woodpecker, so love surely is in the air for the residents.

While scanning with Trevor, I picked up a distant flock of about 60+ Golden Plover, moving back and forth to the NNW.

Skylark puts me on 87, so just 5 shy of the park's 92.
