Friday 10th October
This morning somewhat overcast and with a chilly south-west breeze.
The same birds still on the floods: 30+ BLACK-TAILED GODWITS, 5 RUFF, 30+ SNIPE. GOLDEN PLOVER started arriving whilst I was there with numbers soon above 100. Quite a few lesser black-backed gulls around. A couple of REDWINGS flew over with 6 more reported (WoM). At least 6 skylarks on the move overhead and a few meadow pipits around. 5 or 6 goldcrests reported (WoM) in Burgess Field.
There are plenty of wigeon still about © Adam Hartley
