Thursday, November 20, 2008 - Straight into darkness
Short days mean a return to the twilight zone for me!
Managed an hour after work this evening, under a fairly spectacular sunset. Buzzardworld had 15 Buzzards, and a stake out at the dog walkers' field provided a few small flocks of Thrushes including both Redwing and Fieldfare, and a whopping 39 Magpies heading to their roost.
Best of all, in near total darkness, was 2 Woodcocks low overhead. I was very fortunate as the first whizzed by, as a "probable". Just as I started to curse my luck, the second followed the same path giving superb silhouetted views.
