Whinchat

Hi

This evening was spent wandering the fields and tracks between Cottesbrooke and Hanging Houghton in pleasant conditions.  A moulting adult Whinchat was the pick of the birds, spending its time in a wheat field adjacent to the most southerly field of the Blueberry Farm complex (and track that leads from Beck Dairy at Cottesbrooke to Hanging Houghton).  A distant Red Kite and the way it was behaving adds to the speculation that a pair may be breeding nearby this year.

Regards

Eleanor and Neil
