Headed to Stewkley Poultry farm first thing hoping to find a migrant or two, but absolutely nothing of any note. Only a small finch flock of Linnets and Greenfinches, plus a Whitethroat.
Called in at Cowpasture Lake near Newton Longville on the journey home as the North Bucks area has had a few good waders in the last week, and this lake doesn't receive much attention from Birders. No Waders, but an eclipse Red Crested Pochard was a surprise.
A few Lapwings and Black Headed Gulls in surrounding fields.
4 Swifts over Newton Longville may turn out to be the last local Swifts I see this year. |
