I was feeling a little better, so decided to take a mid week trip to Hyde Park/Kensington Gardens in hope of Wheatear, Tawny Owl and Little Owl. Hilariously enough, I missed out on all these. Special. In my defence, the Tawny Owl weren't seen for a couple of days around then, the Little Owl was only spotted briefly in the morning and the Wheatear did a runner.
Parakeet were in plenty of supply and a tiny Treecreeper put on an appearance. I saw 4 Great Spotted Woodpecker and a muscley Green Woodpecker. There was also a lone Sand Martin tumbling around the north end of Long Water, my first for the year. Another first for the year was a sleeping male Mandarin.
I've realised I've somwhere missed out 3 birds on my year list...hmm. That's to explain the jump to 135!
Trip list: 29
Year list: 136
Lifers of year list: 11
