KELLOGS CORN BUNTINGS

I know I know its a corny old title but its been a very tiring week end, and I am  a week behind so its time to catch up.Was a bit late getting up on balloon race day only managed to see the last few,but at least the Kellogs balloon came over the garden while I was eating my corn flakes.
Bringing up the rear were the Unipart balloon and a colourful one with no name.


Later on spent the morning at Stodmarsh where a female hen harrier and numerous marsh harriers in courtship flights were the high spots.
