Lapwing 100 Dairy Farm Road
The Hobby was a fantastic sight. I first noticed it because it put up all of the Lapwings and Starlings, but then I watched it as it soared high into the sky and eventually came right over my head. Then it headed off over the pine trees in Dairy Farm Road, before stooping down in classic Hobby fashion towards an unseen prey, before finally landing in the woods. This is the latest Hobby I have ever seen.
The photo is of course rubbish, barely reconisable as a bird, but believe me, it is a Hobby!
