Ring Ouzel morning

Post by John Frankland »

Good views of 4 (3m/1f) *Ring Ouzel on slopes between George’s Lane and Royston Lane about 715am with 1 Fieldfare & 2 Wheatear. Also 16 Redpoll (11+4+1)

Then a further 5 (4m/1f) Ring Ouzel in fields by farm to the West of Belmont Reservoir at 830am with 1 Wheatear and 1 Mistle Thrush. Also 4 Brambling in larch/beech at south end.

At least 1 Brambling at Wards Reservoir.

Great Grey Shrike still below Great Hill at 1045am.

*1 more takes me to 110 species for the year.
