Hi I have been advised to inform you of a new bird I have seen on afternoon of 18th July.

A bird about 10,12" long with a brown head and shoulders then black shinny body quite slim and very healthy looking.

It landed on the privet bush across the road from my window.

This was at the top of Ramsden road at the cobble road leading to Water grove reservoir.

Hope it is of interest

Regards
Sheila
