Autumn wildlife images

Hello

Not much in the way of birding opportunities today I'm afraid but Chris Payne had his garden mist nets open for a short time at Greens Norton today and caught typical birds which included a Treecreeper and some Starlings...

Bird ringing operations are planned for Wednesday, Thursday and possibly Friday mornings at Harrington Airfield whilst this relatively calm period of weather persists. Target birds will be migrant thrushes and it is possible that Redwings will dominate. Please let me know if you would like to attend these ringing sessions as the area will otherwise be restricted to ringers and helpers. My apologies if this affects your plans for the next couple of days...

The below images were taken on the Scottish islands of Islay and Jura during a very pleasant week-long trip there at the end of October...
