There was certainly nothing by way of fireworks generated from the majority of today's fieldwork, with singles of
Redwing and
Siskin at the Bill where the sea was busy with regulars but precious little else; however, a large falcon that scooted through over the Bill during the morning certainly had the potential to be a good deal more interesting should it reappear and show for longer/better than it did.
The ID of briefly and relatively poorly seen juvenile large falcons is well beyond our pay grade: this morning's bird was clearly a Saker or Lanner type - maybe Lanner's favoured? - but this tricky pair also have the additional fly in the ointment of Heinz 57 escaped hybrids to consider so unless it appears again we doubt we'll get any further with it © Martin Cade:
