went out for a late evening walk tonight around my local fields. I heard a pheasant nearby so decided to stalk it but by the time I got to where I thought it would be it had gone. Then I heard squawking and crashing about in the nearby tree line I walked across the field feeling quite exited the last time I followed the sounds of distress I got my first sighting of a fox. This time it was two birds one was a magpie the other was a brown bird of similar size they were having a serious go at each other just as I was raising my camera they broke up the brown bird flew to the left and the magpie flew straight up into the trees. I stood a while looking into the trees to see if anything else would happen. After a while I started walking along the path next to the trees and there in a bush hanging upside down was a magpie, I’m a squeamish sort of person so I didn’t look to close but some of the magpies insides were outside.On a brighter note I’ve seen a stoat on two occasions lately and plenty of rabbits and I’ve seen quite a few yellowhammer in the area or at least a pair moving around a lot.
