Commuters



They've been making the journey each day for several weeks but once autumn becomes established the thing becomes more intense. They are mostly jackdaws with a few rooks, off to the west for the day. The great fascination is that each convoy is different, the number of birds, the way they group and their peculiar ways of approaching the journey. Some lazily drift others determinedly race close to the ground. Much more fun than waiting for some rare bird to appear.
