The Brampton Valley below Hanging Houghton and in particular the area near 'shrike hedge' yielded four Stonechats and two Whinchats today with another pair of Stonechat at Blueberry Farm, Maidwell. Two Ravens and a Grey Wagtail frequented Hanging Houghton village.
A 'ringtail' harrier was seen near to Harrington Airfield where there were still three Stonechats and Hollowell Reservoir sported two female Common Redstarts in the hedge NW of Guilsborough Bay plus two Whinchats, at least four Stonechats and three Common Snipe.
There were four Dunlin on the Titchmarsh reserve at Thrapston Pits today plus another at Clifford Hill Pits and two Spotted Redshanks were reported this afternoon on the Earls Barton Pits New Workings at the north end.
