Had a good session of visual migration over Bush hill, Flecknoe early morning for a couple of hours with Wood Pigeon 250, Starling 134, Fieldfare 53, Redwing 45, Meadow Pipit 45, Skylark 34, Chaffinch 23 and 100+ which went unidentified plus a few Blackbirds all heading in a south westerly direction. Nothing exciting but good to see. Earlier near Sawbridge I had two Barn Owls still out hunting at first light and four Snipe while further down the valley along the Flecknoe road 2 Grey Partridge were in Cym & Dave’s Basealy small holding along with a single Corn Bunting and nearby 20+ Stock Dove, Buzzard and 2 Raven. Too many pushchairs and joggers for my sanity so gave Draycote a miss till late afternoon but very little about apart from the Shag and Little Gull. Interestingly Mark Phillips had a Little Owl at a new location for Draycote so hopefully it will take up residence. Another Atlantic depression is on its way so fingers crossed it will bring something.
