Autumn birds

Hello

Out and about a bit today but not much to show for it!

A wander at Harrington Airfield between the bouts of rain provided good numbers of common birds including several Chiffchaffs. A Golden Plover was flying around and a small flock of Skylarks flew around calling.

A visit to the main feeding station at Pitsford Reservoir was sufficient to see the Black Tern and the regular loafing adult Yellow-legged Gull. There appeared to be an influx of Chiffchaffs here too and at nearby Brixworth Water Treatment Works there were more plus a Grey Wagtail.

The best birds in the garden here at Hanging Houghton were singles of Chiffchaff and Blackcap.
