Cassiobury Park - 27.6.13

Whilst cutting the tennis courts first thing I noted 5 Pied Wagtail on the grass collecting insects with 3 of them being juvs. I had noted adults with beaks full of food around the yard in previous weeks so it would be nice to think they were born in the park somewhere. 30 minutes before home I was unloading stuff from the van when I heard a call coming from the trees in the corner of the yard. For a second I couldn't put my finger on what was making it but then out popped a Marsh Tit (I see them so infrequently I forget what they sound like!) Only the 3rd time I have seen this species in the park it was a welcome year tick and nice to know they are hanging on around the area. Seconds later a Red Kite flew over.
