Birds spotted while driving on the motorways between Derbyshire and Brighton
Ok I probably should have been concentrating 100% on the roads but I couldn’t help noticing:
Numerous buzzards
A sparrowhawk?
Kestrels
Crows
Several jays
Pigeons
A heron
A red kite (near the M25 junction with the M40)
An egret
A tern (presumably common – near the reservoirs by Heathrow)
Jackdaws
Pied wagtail (at Cobham services – also at Watford Gap services a couple of days ago)
Birds are brilliant and get everywhere – making motorway driving much more interesting
