Yet more Crossbills...

Hello

Much quieter in the county today judging from the lack of reports but a few bits and pieces found out there...

A single Crossbill flew west over Scaldwell village on 10.30am and birds at the south end of Pitsford Reservoir included a Chiffchaff and two Yellow-legged Gulls (adult and first year).

Birds noted at Hanging Houghton today included one or two Redpoll(s), a few Siskins and two-three Bramblings with four Stonechats in the Brampton Valley below the village. Two or three mobile Crossbills were at Lamport Hall and Siskins were in small numbers at Scotland Wood (Kelmarsh estate).

A Grey Wagtail was at Brixworth and Hollowell Reservoir was the continued venue for a Crossbill and six Pink-footed Geese. A Bearded Tit was heard calling at Summer Leys LNR and a Great White Egret showed up there later.
