I decided to do the Glamorgan Bird Club Big Bird Count today and logged 28 species. My route went via the dipping pond, then up the Mile Road between the lakes, into West Paddock, then round through Cogan Wood, out into the westerly field and up by the plantation above Sully Brook, along the top of the so-called upper Dovecote field and back down to the Mile Road and back past the Medieval Village. My full list is here. Nothing of real note although Jay and Green Woodpecker were best of the bunch. Noticeable absentees were Coal TIt and Nuthatch in Cogan Wood [and Marsh Tit I guess], despite my taking some seed.
