Travelling South to Heathrow and beyond, UK.

First stages of going South, a long way South!!!!

Our flight pulling in.
I was up early and finished my packing off before sitting in the lounge at my Mom's chatting before Mom and John dropped me up to the Train Station.
Whilst I was sat there I picked up Woodpigeon (Paloma Torcaz / Columba palumbus), House Sparrow (Gorrión Común / Passer domesticus), Dunnock (Acentor Común / Prunella modularis), Greenfinch (Verderón Común / Carduelis chloris), Blue Tit (Herrerillo Común / Parus caeruleus), Common Starling (Estornino Pinto / Sturnus vulgaris), Blackbird (Mirlo Común / Turdus merula), Collared Dove (Tórtola Turca / Streptopelia decaocto), Coal Tit  (Carbonero Garrapinos / Parus ater), Goldfinch (Jilguero / Carduelis carduelis), Carrion Crow (Corneja Negra / Corvus corone), Jackdaw (Grajilla / Corvus monedula), Common Magpie (Urraca / Pica pica), Robin (Petirrojo Europeo / Erithacus rubecula) and Wren (Chochin / Troglodytes troglodytes).
One of the very steep, very long escalators in Heathrow Airport.
I said turrah to Mom and John and got on the train to Birmingham international and then a coach to Heathrow where (as I am always early) after a few hour's of waiting I got on a flight to Singapore.
During the trip down I added Lesser Black-backed (Gaviota Sombria / Larus fuscus), European Herring (Gaviota Argéntea Europea / Larus argentatus) and Black-headed Gull (Gaviota Riedora / Larus ridibundus), Common Buzzard (Busardo Ratonero / Buteo buteo), Red Kite (Milano Real / Milvus milvus), Common Kestrel (Cernicalo Vulgar / Falco tinnunculus) and Mute Swan (Cisne Vulgar / Cygnus olor).
