Thick fog this morning so gave Draycote Water a miss and carried on to Draycote village and worked the national Cycle Route 41 to Birdingbury Bridge (dis-used railway line) and the footpath from Birdingbury Bridge to Manor Farm, Draycote and back hoping for the shrike. The cycle route had 14 Bullfinch, 2 Lesser Redpoll, 3 Green Woodpecker and 4 Goldcrest while the footpath had hundreds of Fieldfare, 30+ Yellowhammer, Corn Bunting, 3 Jay, Red-legged Partridge and 3 Buzzards. Arriving back at Birdingbury Bridge a Little Owl was feeding on the ground. The Journey home via Birdingbury, Leamington Hastings, Hill, Kites Hardwick and Dunchurch was pretty quiet with the area still misty and very few highlights - apart from some dodgy drivers, best would be the Marsh Tit at Birdingbury and 3 Raven near Kites hardwick.
