A little colder

A one hour watch over the landfill, was similar to yesterday, 100+ Fieldfare, 100+ Redwing, 4+ Skylark, 4-5 Meadow Pipit, 60-80 Chaffinch, 30+ unidentified finches, 2 Kestrel, but not much else, although walking back across the car park field 50+ Pigeon were the first passage of this autumn.

4 Little Egret were seen at Lea Farm G.P. as was the Jack Snipe, by others. Tim Alexander ringed 4 Lesser Redpoll, bringing the month to equal first place at 96, so plenty of time for the other species I mentioned before.

I really want to take a good walk about the whole North end of DP to see if we have any signs of other 'stuff' hiding in the tit flocks.
