Bird & Wildlife sightings 2021 Updated with snaps

**Newest sightings in Bold (23 since last update)

**Updated photos also in Italics (0 since last update)

Sightings up to the 10th July.

So an obvious choice of a list of wildlife that can be spotted on daily walks as well as the bigger adventures as I go through the year. Hopefully I will start my butterflies and moths blog as well for 2021. 

II have added photos that I have taken during this year where possible. Some will be changed as the year goes on if hopefully I take some better snaps or winter/summer coats ie Black Headed Gull with its hooded head.
