Plenty of migrants around today after last night’s north-easterlies, though they were not so easily pinned down in the 35mph winds this morning.
Nothing fancy but great just to see loads of newly arrived birds!
A Golden Plover was a scarce August record here, 3 Whinchats and 3 Yellow Wagtails stood out amongst 20+ Wheatears and White Wagtails around Kiln Farm where a flock of 180 Goldfinches had gathered. A movement of Kestrels saw 12 within the census area.
