Another Dawn trip to Quainton Hill.
Not so much present today.. Was lucky to find 1 Female Ring Ouzel on the Western slope unlike previous sightings which have been on the Eastern side.
Bird was perched in a bush and spent several minutes upright quivering its silvery wings, before being chased off by a Blackbird.
Whatear numbers down to 10, Meadow Pipits down to 4, and no sign of the Male Redstart.
There were however, still 95 Fieldfares on the hillside.
Called in at Pilch Field on the return home. Nice place with lots of isolated bushes, but no surprises here. Plenty of common stuff (Chiff-Chaffs, Willow Warbler, Bullfinch, Yellow Hammer, Green Woodpecker) 1 Snipe flew out of a small marshy area. |
