A bit underwatched and overshadowed by events to the north currently - things could have been different if Alex Lees had managed good views of the Locustella that he flushed on the saltings twice yesterday !
Anyway today.
Good visible migration of finches, larks, pigeons and pipits again on the south-westerlies.
Waxwing 15 south Woodcock 10 (1 in off) Woodpigeon 1500 south Pinkfoot 150 south Whitefronted goose 1 adult south with PFG's Prob bean goose 1 south with above flock Velvet scoter 2 with 60 common scoter Crossbill 3 showing well in Beach Car Park (for last week) Whopper swan 5 south Chiffchaff 4 including the dingiest chiff I have ever seen in the UK - this bird has been around for about a week now, previosuly on the west dunes and now moved to Sykes Farm -it calls like a rock pipit !
Cheers
Kev
