Hello
Another murky but mild November day with the minimum of daylight and with drizzle and some light rain making for a very short day!
A ringing session at Brixworth Water Treatment Works was concluded this morning with twenty-five Reed Buntings and nine Lesser Redpolls and ten Redwings being processed in total among smaller numbers of common fare. Three Grey Wagtails and a Common Snipe were on-site as were variable numbers of common finches including Siskins and one Brambling briefly.
Large numbers of Redwings were again present at Harrington Airfield today together with smaller numbers of Song Thrushes, Blackbirds and Fieldfares and this will be the venue for a small scale ringing session tomorrow (covid 19 restrictions apply). As such the bunkers and old airstrip will be subject to restricted access but the main concrete track will be unaffected.
Mark Piper's venture to Hollowell Reservoir today provided views of a Caspian Gull and six Pink-footed Geese.
Regards
Neil M
