Football First

An early afternoon visit to the Gravel Pits today as I wanted to see 'my' team Chelsea play Spurs in the FA Cup Semi-Final.
There was no sign of Friday's Common Sandpiper on the East Lake, there was however 20 Canada Geese, 4 Mallards,2 Tufted Duck, 3 Mute Swans, 3 Coot and 1 Little Grebe.
2 Swallows were flying over the water.
A look over the West Lake revealed an impressive 90 Herring Gulls.
A walk around the reserve produced 2 singing Willow Warblers,2 Chiffchaff, a pair of Bullfinches and a Green Woodpecker. It was nice to see an Orange Tip butterfly on the wing also.
