It's official?......

The Lesser Yellowlegs and Wood Sandpiper still present. Interesting that Wood Sandpiper has not made the journey south, can this bird now be said to be wintering? 3 Goldeneye, Little Grebe and Tufted Duck also here. On Saturday a Chiffchaff was seen on the sewage works track, also a handful of Coal Tits. Ravens were hanging about the pylons. A flock of 8 Linnets were moving north along the river bank. A flock of Greenfinch, up to 9, was also present. On the marsh 5 Little Egrets and the usual Canada/Greylag Geese, 3 skeins of Pink feet 70, 175, 70, Lapwing, Golden Plover and Dunlin all spooked by something. The maize fields have been cleared.
