Weather: Light winds, sunny. some high cloud.
A crisp and cold but clear late autumn
day had observers excited at the prospect of a good days birding.
Overhead vis mig was unsurprisingly at this time of year made up
principally of finches. 54 Goldfinch, 27 Greenfinch, 5 Bullfinch, 18
Siskin and 3 Brambling moved through during the course of the
morning.
The Siberian (Tristis) Chiffchaff
that has been elusive for a couple of days finally showed well today
allowing for a couple of pictures. A particularly well marked
individual sporting a faint wing bar and green edges to the
primaries. Two 'normal' Colybita Chiffchaffs
are also present in the same area
A
Firecrest was found mid morning but could not be re located later in
the day.
The
usual Tit flocks could be found around the coastal sallows whilst a
solitary Jay was in Lingham lane.
Kerr's
field continues to play host to a range of gulls, ducks and waders
including 110 Lapwing and 27 Black tailed Godwit.
