Pallas's Warbler


This little fellow was on at Sammies Point.Unfortunately he was being "pursued " by about 20 birders who kept flushing him from bush to bush. If they had just stood still they  would have had better views of him.

Just a little mixture from the past month

Common Redpoll  Barred Warbler , Brambling Roe Deer  Golden Plover Grey Heron Kestrel and Mealy Redpoll 






Waxwing on Warley Road

There was a flock of 20 circling around but unfortunately there were also two boys playing around the trees .Not the best combination

Quite a highlight was the large numbers that decended over a small period of time. One of our all time favourites




The Mob


This little lot came down to the Crown and Anchor car park to see a Little Bunting in the hand . For the curious thats me on the right

Rose coloured starling


Quite a drab bird in some ways but nice to see anyway






Waxwing


This little beauty wouldnt let go of its berry.It had been through the full ringing process yet it still held on to the food
