Cycling near Wilmslow in Cheshire this morning and I heard an Oystercatcher flying over. What it was doing in the middle of Cheshire in June I've no idea. It's a long way from both the coast and their breeding sites
Oycs flight call is unmistakeable. An incredibly loud "peeeep" every few seconds

Seems my pond has been a breeding ground for dragonflies 
I've counted over 20 of these nymph remains

I have to admit it has me scratching my head for a minute.
I'm pretty sure it's a juvenile Starling. The shape and bill is normal Starling but the plumage is somewhat weird, maybe an effect of the sunlight

Thanks, that’s interesting as we do have so juveniles, but I was confused about the tail, eyes, and longer neck than I thought for starling.
It doesn’t look the same, though that’s no doubt my ignorance 😀

I think it’s too big for a juvenile Dunnock, and too long?My bird I.D. app thinks it's a dunnock, I'm not so sure
Maybe a juvenile blackbird? Looking at the tail, I’m sure it’s a blackbird!
