Monday's birds

Hello

Plenty of birds in the garden again today which included two male Bramblings, a male Yellowhammer, a Tree Sparrow and a couple of Reed Buntings. There were also two Bramblings along the Brampton Valley Way near to Merry Tom Lane. Two Snipe were flushed at Harrington Airfield this morning and a Woodcock flushed up at Scotland Wood (Kelmarsh Estate).

Neil Hasdell was at Summer Leys Local Nature Reserve again today and birds clocked up included the female Scaup again, a female Goosander, 3 Egyptian Geese, 2 Shelducks, 2 Redshank, 2 Oystercatchers, just 3 Golden Plovers, 3 Little Egrets and 30+ Siskins.

Regards
