Hello
Harrington Airfield was bright and breezy this morning and the top fields held a flock of mixed corvids, about one hundred and twenty Lapwings and two-hundred and fifty Golden Plovers. In the strong wind the plovers and lapwings careered around in mini murmurations and the finches and buntings coming down for the food again included two Bramblings.
The two pairs of Stonechats were still present in the Brampton Valley below Hanging Houghton and at least one Raven was at Cottesbrooke village.
A pair of Red-crested Pochards were at Kislingbury Pits today and the Irthlingborough Lakes section of Ditchford Pits attracted three Cattle Egrets and seven Pintail.
The Great Northern Diver was again at Pitsford Reservoir, this time about a mile south of the causeway and other birds included two Great White Egrets, a Barn Owl, four Stonechats and a Chiffchaff with three Redpoll still in nearby Scaldwell village.
Regards
Neil M
