July 28th: Swift - 3 & Common Gull - 3 
July 30th: Swift - 2

Aug 5th:  While c18 Spuggies were busy eating the bits that had fallen on garden of the fat balls (and while I stood and watched in lounge only two yards away) a Male Sprawk paid a visit swooping on them and getting one on it's back , I felt real sorry for it and while the hawk stood on it I felt like knocking on window but decided it was only getting an easy meal rather than visiting a well known store a mile away, I was that consumed with the action had not thought of getting camera, then did, the sun was that bright it almost obscured the spuggie but got two pics.
All the above sightings also include the regulars.
