Hilfield 20-25th September

Still some hirundines around at Hilfield (mainly house martins and the odd swallow), as well as buzzards and red-legged partridges. On the night of the 24th, I saw my first tawny owl of the year very briefly, in our garden at Hilfield as well as several noctule bats.

Interestingly, I noticed that some house martins were still visiting a nest on the 24th. It seems far too late to be bringing up another brood, but I can't see why else they'd still visit their nests...
