Could not get out till late afternoon so missed Dave Hutton and Steve Seal at Draycote Water who had Rock Pipit, Shag and 60+ Meadow Pipits along farborough bank while enjoying a photographing session and Francoise who had a Wheatear near the valve tower.


Shag and Kestrel by Steve Seal
I did not give myself time to find the reported Common Scoter male but did have first winter Kittiwake in roost along with first winter Med Gull and 2nd winter Yellow-legged Gull. As I was leaving at least 30 Siskin over toft shallows and a Chiffchaff was heard.
