A wind from the north

Hello

A northerly air flow has cooled everything down and the birding appears to have slowed today.

The three Glossy Ibis were again at Stanford Reservoir briefly this morning before disappearing and other birds were twenty-five Little Grebes and two Common Sandpipers.

At Pitsford Reservoir the Glossy Ibis was mobile due to disturbance and other birds present were an Osprey, six Great White Egrets, twelve Little Egrets, three Ruff, a Dunlin, a Ringed Plover, a Common Sandpiper, three Pintail and a Yellow-legged Gull.

Hollowell Reservoir provided a Dunlin, two Common Sandpipers and two Stonechats.

The Glossy Ibis was again reported at Summer Leys LNR today.

Two Ravens and a Grey Wagtail were at Hanging Houghton and two Stonechats were in the Brampton Valley below the village with still two Whinchats at Blueberry Farm, Maidwell.

Regards
