March end of month post 3 of 3: Ten of my favourite wildlife photos I took this month of; Mediterranean Gull at Hayling Island, Lapwing at Pennington, Mel the Peregrine at Winchester Cathedral, Marsh Harrier and Roe Deers at Testwood Lakes a key species seen a lot for me this month, Cetti's Warbler at Fishlake Meadows, Red Admiral at Lakeside Country Park, Great Spotted Woodpecker at Lepe, Grey Squirrel at Lakeside and spider at home.
March was another amazing birdwatching month for me as springtime birds coming into my year such as many Mediterranean Gulls seen, Blackcap and Razorbill mixed perfectly with valuable time with winter birds that I've had a great season for such as Brent Goose, Wigeon and Redwing. Mesmerising owls Little Owl at Portland and Short-eared Owl at Keyhaven, Jack Snipe, Linnet, Sand Martin, Purple Sandpipers, Shag, Gannet and Knot were other stellar additions to my year this month as my year list thrived being in positions in terms of numbers on dates that only my record year list of last year could better which was brilliant. Marsh Harrier and Cetti's Warbler two birds I've had an extraordinary year for so far kept on giving with many wonderful experiences hearing and seeing them in March. Other standout birds this month included Ruff, Greenshank, Avocet, Lapwings, Oystercatcher, Golden Plover, Curlews, Water Rail, Moorhen, Great White Egret, Great Northern Diver, Eider, Pintail, Gadwall, Song Thrush, Dunnock, Treecreeper, Nuthatch, Long-tailed Tit, Lesser Redpoll, Mistle Thrush, Ring-necked Parakeet, Great Spotted Woodpecker, Green Woodpecker, loads of Chiffchaffs being about a treat to the eyes and ear and Red Kite. It was a true honour to witness Winchester Cathedral's Peregrines in very dramatic times as newbie Mel killed longstanding female Winnie in a scuffle as well as Great Crested Grebes at Lakeside elegantly courting and the stunning humbug chicks of one pair emerging. With me upgrading my camera this month it's been great exploring with it and in particular it's really good for birds in flight so that's been a strong theme this month.
I had a fabulous butterfly month too seeing Red Admiral, Peacock, Small Tortoiseshell, Brimstones and Speckled Wood in the extremely exciting early spring days as these flamboyant insects enter nature's stage. It was great to see bees a lot this month too as well as crane flies and spiders and Grey Silverfish at home. Fallow Deer, Wood Mouse and thrilling views out the front at home of Hedgehog and bats have been other mammal highlights.
On Friday night and last night the other parts of these end of month posts posted about flowers and fungi and landscapes for me this month. Happy Easter all and wishing you a great April.

It's so humiliating that withdrawn IDs on iNaturalist don't disappear now everyone's gonna know I incorrectly identified this blurry photo of a vaguely snipe-shaped bird as a wood sandpiper when in fact it was a green sandpiper

25°C. Sunny.
Notes: An Eurasian hobby hunting swallows + first sighting of Arctic tern of the year. Wood sandpiper, common redshank and common curlew at the water's edge, looking drowsy in the heat. A bat that stuck its head out of a nest box but returned in horror at the sight of us! In the water closest to the shore shoal after shoal of small, small perch.
Valsörarna, Finland
